w. cook's turkey, goose, and pheasant book. 15 



During the severe winter of 1891 my young turkeys sat out 

 in the open with no shelter whatever, and not one of them 

 took any harm. I just mention this to show that the 

 dehcacy of turkeys all passes away as they grow up. 



When once they get their feathers they are one of the 

 hardiest of the feathered tribes, but in no case should they 

 sleep in the house one night, and outside the next, if so 

 they are sure to take cold.
