M4F

Recently widowed multi colored male in search of a lasting long term relationship. Looking for that special girl who enjoys her guy strutting his stuff. I am average weight and fully feathered and I love to show off. I am not into the bar scene or head games. I have managed to keep my head during the Thanksgiving holidays.

I am into the great outdoors, scratching though the leaves for insects, watching out for foxes and coyotes, chasing roosters around the yard and for a real fun time chasing the postal truck up the road. I am very good at stopping traffic.

I have my own luxurious heated coop with plenty of room on the perch for you. If you are interested in getting to know me and possibly starting a loving relationship and maybe a family, please stop by the homestead.


After loosing Bob's girlfriend, Hope, to a predator last spring, we are extremely pleased to announce that Bob has a new girl friend.

Betty Lou is a very pretty, young. vivacious Bourbon Red Turkey.

Like the Royal Palm Turkey, the Bourbon Red is a heritage breed turkey and the following is from The American Livestock Breeds Conservancy

The Bourbon Red turkey is named for Bourbon County in Kentucky’s Bluegrass region where it originated in the late 1800’s. It was developed by J. F. Barbee from crosses between Buff, Bronze, and White Holland turkeys though the initial steps actually took place in Pennsylvania, where Buff turkeys of darker red hues – called Tuscarora or Tuscawara – were bred and then taken west with settlers bound for Ohio and Kentucky. These dark Buff turkeys would be the primary foundation for the new variety.


After some years of selection, Mr. Barbee was able to produce consistently good-sized dark red turkeys with white wing and main tail feathers. He christened these “Bourbon Butternuts.” For some reason, perhaps because the name did not appeal to the public, the birds did not attract attention. Barbee rechristened them “Bourbon Reds,” Bourbon for his home county and red for the rich, chestnut color of the plumage. The name change seemed to work, and better sales were reported.

I have had a deep fascination with the Bourbon Red ever since I saw my first one on a local homestead 35 years ago so I am very excited that Betty Lou now calls our homestead home, and hopefully she and Bob will produce some awesome looking youngsters.
