Lovely photos, I love Cheryl the turkey!

 

Ex batts are great :D

Mine are hugely friendly, they love to be around us when we're in the garden. I often feel rather like the pied piper as I walk round the garden with my little troop trotting along behind :lol:

They're not overly keen on cuddles but are very docile and will tolerate being picked up without too much bother!

They will happily eat out of a hand but do get a bit enthusiastic and can nip accidently, but it doesn't hurt because they have been beak trimmed.

They can be aggressive towards each other for the first few weeks as they settle down but this quickly passes and I have never seen any aggressive behaviour since. They have never been aggressive towards people.

It's also lovely to watch them develop from frightened little s"Ooops, word censored!"s who don't know how to behave like chickens into glossy feathered, brave proper chickens. It lifts my heart every time I see them fighting over a worm or dustbathing!

I can't recommend them enough - go for it! :D
