Assault with a Deadly Turkey Wing

A word of advice~
Never try to carry a broad-breasted bronze tom turkey weighing close to 40 pounds (even if you think it is for his own good).

One crazy flapping wing can lead to what feels like a slightly broken nose and a light black eye or two.

  3. Ok, so now the question I should have asked last night (but was too tired).

    Why?

    And, did you eat him? ;)

  4. He was outside of the coop when I was putting everyone up for the night. So, I picked him up.

    We haven't eaten him yet!

  5. Ouch! They are big creatures, and very flaily! (Not sure that last word is a real word, but it works here.) Glad you are okay. And I will take your advice.

    That sounds quite deadly. Who'd have thought it - turkeys: lethal weapons. :)
