Not weird that you talk to them at all, not sure about the fact they talk back.Killerbunny wrote: ↑Mon Nov 26, 2018 11:19 amHe did mention that if @Happy visits she can call him Mr. Twinkle Toes! Anyone think it weird I chat to them and get answers????
Have you discussed with them how they feel about the fact they talk to people and they answer?

Re: Naming
I will keep that as a topic for our next coffee chat. I am fairly sure it's some devious training method they use on humans.

Re: Naming
Turkeys not only chat back, but if you really listen closely, they'll often initiate the conversation.

Re: Naming
Ok even I have to admit that Handsome Dude is probably a better name for his image and self worth.
And KB my chickens give me financial advice so I wouldn't worry.

Re: Naming
Did they chat to me? They gathered in the corner looking at me suspiciously chatting amongst themselves, something along the lines of ...who the heck is she?? and where is our real mommy??Killerbunny wrote: ↑Mon Nov 26, 2018 12:52 pmI will keep that as a topic for our next coffee chat.
