May 30th three weeks old

Week 3 I had to add chicken wire on the area, to a hight
of 3 feet. one of the little darlings flew across the pen and
hit me in the thigh. Another was flapping it's wings
and "walked" up the chicken wire at the same time.

I guess it is self preservation, that gets the flying.
I have been watching the wild turkeys around here
we have a pair of females in your lower yard that have
about 12 babies between them. The adults rarely fly,
but the babies are flying all over the place.

The babies can actually fly away from danger better than the
adults. Well enough of my babbling here is this weeks set of pictures.

Wow the feathers keep changing on this one
and I still have not been able to figure out which
chick is which breed.
