Members davd_indigo Posted November 24, 2017 Members Share Posted November 24, 2017 I still remember that line about "as God is my witness, I didn't know turkeys couldn't fly". I heard a guy interviewed, on South Carolina Public Radio the other day on my T'giving trip from Florida. He's some sort of professor who on the side raises turkeys with his wife. He said they raise 35-40 turkeys each year and harvest all but 4 or 5. Interestingly, he said that if one of the turkeys gets injured, the rest of the flock will viciously attack the injured bird until they kill him. I guess it's nature's way. He said they have to clip the wings to prevent them from flying away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
