I think Tito was kind of stuck for what to do next, so I suggested an activity. Please click the Tito link for more posts about Tito. (I think this is her last year.)
Awww ... tell Tito I said "hi". I wonder if she found any tasty morsels. You think this is her last year, how old is she? I will be sad if she dies. Of course almost everything makes me sad right now.
Tito is five this spring. rinalia works at a farm animal rescue, and she said that broad-breasted white turkeys usually die (of heart failure) at around 5.
Tito has bad arthritis, as well. I'm worried that she'll be unable to stand or walk soon, and I'll have to bring her to be euthanized.
That was how she ended up with a male name: she started showing all these male characteristics (snood, beard, etc) before she ended all doubt by laying an egg!
She was, for a bit, and then I set the camera down and she just sort of froze there for a few minutes. I cut a full minute off the beginning of the video!

Why wasn't she scratching in the grass on her own to begin with?
