turkeys

[roadkill]

i want to get a couple of turkeys , what will i need to get me started?

will a chicken coop be ok or will i need a bigger coop

how how will my fence have to be ?

i was also told that foxes wont touch them so can i leave them be and let them roam all day and just leave the coop door open

I'd suggest a shed might make a good home - beyond that I have no idea!

Have fun

Wow, turkeys would be fun! There are some at our local pet's corner petting farm. The naughty chickens peck their bum feathers out. They're like SuperSize Me chickens - everything needs to be bigger for a turkey. And boy, they're ugly

* turkeys are noisy
* they are NOT fox-proof
* they're grazing birds, need fresh grass
* they can fly over 6 foot fencing
* they're dearer than chooks, starting at around £10 each for a young cross-breed, around £50 for an adult turkey

would it be ok to just keep one or will they need to be in a couple ?
