Wow! We have a turkey-mom!
Today chicks hatch from our turkey Aza.
In this regard, we had to give up all the business and quickly install a fence for the kids.
Turkeys are very good parents and protect their chicks well. But we have special circumstances. In the yard there are too many other inhabitants who are not averse to "eating" chicks. And it's not just cats. The turkey can easily cope with a cat. But...
Storks are a serious threat to chicks.
And also crows.
Of course Aza and turkey Kuzma (their father) will be able to protect the kids, but there is always a risk that the chick can be outdone from parents. We have counted thirteen kids so far! It's not easy to follow everyone.
That the chicks do not jump out of the fence and that no one of the storks put their sharp beak on the fence, we hung a small net over the fence.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, I am crying in happiness!

I was watching a TV program yesterday about animals in Africa, I almost went to the hospital so crazy I was with what was happening. We need loving souls on Earth to take care of our animals!
Unfortunately, people often act with animals horribly. Only today my friends found in the forest two dogs tied to a tree. One of them died, and the second one is in very poor condition. But we must fight for good, God does not have hands, except ours.
Oh my God... no words, just tears, I am sending him/her all my positive prayers... so sad now..., and you are so much right, we must fight...
Very cool! Nice pictures also. What an adorable little turkey family.
Thank you!:)
