Turkeys at two months & recent addition(s)

In the past two months the turkeys have grown alot! They now look like they might live up to their name- Mammoth Bronze Turkey! They're roaming around in the old pen and are having a great time (especially since the grass has grown back!).  We also were recently given three bantam roosters and put them in the pen with our turkeys. They are so small in comparison! I thought you all might want to see some pictures of them so one of our sisters went out and got some pictures for the blog! 

Here is what the turkeys looked like when we first got them:

Awwww!

So cute...for that time. :)

Here is what they look like now:

Wow, right!

 Big...and ugly. ;)

 If you're wondering what the middle turkey is doing....it is stretching it's wing and right leg. :)

These are the (much smaller) roosters that we were given:

They look so funny...strutting their (lack of) stuff!

 "When the grass is up to your waist...you're small." ;)
They are probably at their full grown size (the roosters) and the turkeys are probably only about 1/2 the size they will be. : 0  Big difference!

 This is a butterfly that my sister just had to take a picture of.

...Also this sunflower that rests in our back-yard...

:)

Other than that we have had a lot of new customers with demands for large amounts of eggs- That is a praise and a prayer request.  Thank the Lord that we have been able to sell what He has provided!  Pray that we will be able to provide more eggs with the same great quality, and that the Lord will show us what we are supposed to do with these new opportunities.  Thank you for reading and have a blessed week!

Chiken growth.

For the past week we haven't had a lot of stuff going on lately!  Selling the eggs is going on fine, the Lord is really answering prayer!  We're getting around 60-70 eggs a day now and getting only about 2 blue eggs a day and around 5 white eggs a day and the rest are brown eggs!  We are still thinkin' about the mixed dozen, if y'all would like it just leave a comment or email us at: wassfam@aol.com!

Well let's do the interview of the "girls" and see the stages of their growth!

This is the day we got them they were about three days old.

And this is when we moved them to the chicken coop.....about 12 weeks old

and getting older...4 months or so.

when we allowed them to free roam...

older....about 5 months

and when we moved them to their home base for the rest of their lives on pasture.....6 and beyond......

and how they are right now!!

From this...

To this!!

They grow very fast compared to humans!

We hope to hear from ya'll soon!

Till next time , God Bless
