Rural Gardening: Narragansett doing his thing, 1 by jylgaskin

The Sumo-Turkeys (formerly Turkzillas, but they really look more like sumo wrestlers now) got out of their back pasture and came up to the house to check things out this morning. By the time I got out there, they were eyeing the Narragansett girls and in full strut. I hearded them (They walk very slowly and stop to rest a lot) to their pen out back (the Narries stay loose in the yard) and when I came back the Narry Tom was strutting for all he was worth. I guess he was trying to show his girls that he was better than the bronzes. I noticed though, that he wasn't anywhere around when the big boys were here. The biggest bronze weighs about 30 pounds and we have almost three months till Thanksgiving. I can't butcher him before then, he won't fit in my freezer! My Narry Tom only goes about 12 pounds, but he is almost two months younger.
