WTF News- July 6th

Wild Turkey Farms News- July 6


Happy belated July 4th to everyone! Nothing like a 4th of July that's hot as a firecracker to let you know summer is here in full force. Of course after hitting 103 + in the past week the mid 90s seem much more bearable. With this kind of weather it seems like a never ending task just keeping fresh water to everything and keeping the wallows nice and muddy for the pigs. I spent several hours Wednesday afternoon hauling hay from a neighbors field and when I returned it seemed that things had started to go awry. When I went to make the evening rounds I found the pigs had given up on rolling in the wallows and were rubbing each other down with BBQ sauce. If that wasn't odd enough, when I got to the hens they were frying bacon in the nest alongside their eggs and the cows were wearing signs that said "medium or well-done". Domisty thinks I really should start drinking more water and maybe it would be a good idea to get out of the heat every so often..... I'm inclined to agree with her.

We should be restocked on chicken tomorrow so come by and stock up!!!
