TURKEYS 

 

PEARL

Pearl and her sisters were fated to be served as somebody’s Thanksgiving dinner. Fortunately for Pearl, the man who bought her for dinner decided to sell his house and could not sell it with turkeys in the yard. So we got a call to rescue dear Pearl and now she will live a life of luxury with her sisters for the rest of her natural life.


Brownie

Brownie was brought to us by a boy who raised Brownie as a 4-H project. As a rule, 4-H animal projects end with the slaughter of the animal, but this compassionate boy did not want to send his beloved bird to be killed. He asked if we could take her in because he could not keep her. How could we refuse? Brownie is a gorgeous girl with iridescent feathers and a sweet disposition. Like all birds who were bred to be eaten, she has a genetic tendency to get too large, so she is on a calorie restricted diet, but she gets lots of low-calorie treats, so she is a happy girl.

 

Carrington

Carrington was raised to be someone’s Thanksgiving dinner. We are so happy that she did not meet that fate. Instead, she gets to live here at the sanctuary where she will be loved every day of her life. Carrington is a very affectionate turkey. She shows people that every turkey has their own personality and Carrington just loves love. She likes to sit in people’s laps and get her soft feathers stroked.
