A warning and a sad lesson if you are thinking of purchasing a turkey poult.  

Broad breasted turkeys are not suitable as lifetime pets. They are for meat production due to their rapid growth and large size. Once they reach 14 to 18 weeks of age, it's crucial to butcher them to avoid health, mobility issues and self-inflicted injuries.   

On a positive note. My onions are thriving and are ready to be harvested and my Amaryllis ‘Sunshine Superstar’ Teresa gave me last year has survived! It has produced the most beautiful blooms (after I killed it 3x).
