That roster looks ferocious!
Free ranging - that brings up another question. I would like to turn them loose in my garden for a few hours a day. Will they hang out in a 1/4 acre area for 8 hours or go wondering off? One of my motivations is to get them to eat bugs off of my garden plants. I plan to lock them in a secure coop at night.
When I was a kid I used to help my grandfather chase the turkeys out of the trees in the evening and catch them and throw them in the coop. The only times they roosted in the trees was when Gramps had been in the field too long and didn't get home in time to catch them on the ground before they went to roost. Even as a kid I understood how it sucks when things go from bad (too many hours of field work) to worse (taking an extra hour to put the damn turkeys away). I think I learned a life lesson from that. I learned some great cuss words from Gramps too!
