Two Creeks Organics

Who knew we would love Poultry so much?

 Our main focus when we began was our produce but as we started to add chickens and turkeys, we found that we really liked them.  Our laying hens are a constant source of amusement. 

The meat chicken on the other hand are a little harder to warm up to.  Perhaps that is a good thing. 

Our Rhode Isand Red, Buff Orpington, and Ameracana (Easter Egg Chickens) laying hens aged out of egg laying and had to be retired.  We have some new chicks in the hen house that will be laying in a few months.  They are Plymouth Rocks and  White Rocks.  They are fed all natural feed and will be free ranging soon on the farm.  ________________________________________

We will not be raising ducks or turkeys this year but here are some pictures of our former flocks.

Our Turkeys at three weeks

The turkeys are also fed all natural feed and graze on pasture from their portable turkey tractor.  The tractor allows them to be moved to fresh pasture daily while being protected from the predators on the property.

Our turkeys at five weeks-look closely and you can see the one on the top right strutting his stuff!

  The turkeys are growing like crazy!

Now that's a Turkey!
