RE: Turkeys - Strutting it up!

in #homesteading7 years ago

My goodness, those guys are beautiful (and I'm not even a turkey hen).

We keep thinking spring has arrived. And then it hasn't. Our fruit trees are budding and we're hearing there may be a freeze this week. Hope the buds stay mostly closed and don't try to bloom!

Sort:  

They do fight some this time of the year but overall they understand the pecking order.

It seems like fruit trees regularly get hit by frost. I pray your will stay closed and give you an abundant harvest!

I added some grapes last year to try to keep our fruit production up in bad weather years.

Yes, the frost and fruit blossoms...always a nail-biter of a finish to actually get fruit! Thank you for the prayers - I'm keeping an eye on them and the weather report and since we have dwarf trees we could actually try to cover them or spray them down with water if it looks like there's going to be a blossom/frost collision.

Having fruit that blooms at all different times definitely hedges your bets for the tough years!
