1. Do Turken roosters crow? Got one as a curiousity (ugly evil looking thing)and it's got all the rooster behaviours but no crow. Stunted spurs and a huge giggley wattle. No Crow. It's hateful to others and aggressive towards my pitbull dachhound mix dog. Even took his milkbone treat. Darn thing's luckey to be ALIVE. Go figure.

2. Killing Cones (for said Turken): Do most of you use them? I'm setting up the slaughter area and can't decide between a big log for hatchet use or a cone station. I've got some disability issues with my upper body and holding a chicken and wacking it is problematic.

Takin' it to the next level of egg and meat production...
Not a hobby anymore.
