There was NOTHING we could do! 

Shannon you are a jewel! You help Kyle any way you can no matter what it is! I love you both!❤❤

Shanon, you’re a work horse for sure…y’all have a great start on your farm.

I actually got a goose to protect my flock, he has done an amazing job so far

I just love y’all and your animals. There’s always a smile on my face when you all interact with each other. It’s pure love. ❤❤

Spruce is such a brat. I just love him 🥰

I know it’s expensive, but Premier One electric poultry netting would stop the predators

Well, Chad was going to get a turkey for Christmas, so...I guess we know where he can get at least one. 😮 They are probably close to EOL expectancy. Guinea usually roost in trees or on top of the sheds at night so they should be okay if left out.

Fantastic outfits Kyle and Shanon, God bless everyone in your family 🙏 💜 ✝️ I hope the turkeys calm down soon

You two are such great team workers! Plus, a great married couple! God bless you two and all the animals! ❤ 😊

Spruce is so funny,always mouthing about something. 😂 And it’s so good to see little Harry back to normal. It is so adorable watching your animal family,they are all so sweet. And Herc is just a big lovable boy. Now the turkey’s on the other hand like to smack each other around and the genies cheering them on. I will say they don’t give up easy. I think you going to have to have one for Christmas dinner. You guys are so funny, love your videos.❤️❤️

It's probably time to put one or both of those tom turkeys in freezer camp! It can be your Christmas dinner! Remember, you feed & care for them; they feed & care for you! You've given them their best life possible! Not it's time that one or both of them feed you! Good luck! Love your videos & animals! Take care!

It was interesting to see the guineas getting in so close to the turkeys fighting , one almost looked like it wanted to get between them several times . So sorry you lost two more guineas as well , sadly that happens . The weather has been dreary pretty much everywhere today .

Love your videos and enjoy watching them every time. May the lord bless and protect you and Kyle and the animals

Christine looked like she was in shock watching them fight! I wonder if they are fighting because of her? That was something else.

I am laughing so hard watching Herc trying to lick Kyle! Herc is so jealous of the goats when they are getting some attention.

Putting up a camera facing the coop might reveal what critter(s) are the perpetrator(s) what ones are attacking the flock.

You could always install shutters over the window opening on the goat barn for the occasion the weather would make it necessary to block the wind.

Hi Shannon and Kyle. I am so in awe of you both. You are doing such an excellent job with the animals. The turkey situation is very interesting. I hope things will calm down now. God bless you two. Sending love and prayers your way ❤️.

What’s up with Shannon working so hard cleaning the old straw and Kyle standing outside the pen watching?🐼. You two are so cute🐼

It's great to see you both! Someone said they always are smiling watching you two. It's the same with me. ❤ EDIT: Isn't one of those turkey's named Christmas?

I suggest building the Turkey Toms separate abodes and get them fattened and tendered up for butchering. The abodes don't have to be too big. Just big enough to move around and stretch. It would make more peace. You can always raise more in the spring. Letting them run in large spaces makes them have tough meat.

Another interesting video. You two have such love for all of the animals which makes us love your videos even more. Sorry you lost two birds & I hope you are able to find out what animal got them. It would be awful if it got down to Herc & the hostess. God bless you both.

When you have more than 1 tom turkey they are eventually going to fight for dominance & they can kill each other without intervention!!! They have definitely reached maturity now & need to be separated whether they like it or not!!! If one of them doesn't concede they will continue to fight!!! I know you are doing the best you know how!!! Love y'all & God Bless!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Shannon I hope your husband showers before bed. All those animals over him. 😊 And I guess your laundry pile is huge . Totally worth all that love ❤

I saw A video of spruce Lee and Mario back before Mama and blue had kids! How cute spruce Lee as a little goatlette

Hey Kyle and Shannon, I cannot see well enough to tell what wire you used on the chicken pen, but there is 1 that WILL prevent raccoons from tearing the wire and that is small opening (1/2 or less) wire called hardware cloth. It's made strong for use to house rabbit, pigeons, etc., and stops even hawks from getting through to kill and pull out your bird or animal. Yes it cost more but pays off in protecting your birds and animals. Just a suggestion for what it's worth.

Yes I m happy you got a tractor , so handy for so many things on a Farm,

I did not realize turkeys fought each other. Holy smokes. Christmas dinner? All the goats seem very happy and they know the routine. 🎄💞🎄

Glad you put the straw bales outside the run, hides the bird herd just a bit😊! Spruce was definitely being a brat to the little kids😆! Herc was definitely thanking you for more hay in his second house 😆! I hope you get some rest and that the sun will be out tomorrow 🙏🏻! Take care and God Bless 🤗💕!

A good sharp knife and big pot of boiling water is most of what you need!😂 And a stomach of steel! Christmas turkey sounds like a winner! And the size of your family it could take two to feed all of you! So watch all the videos! Lots of prayers for y’all! Love and blessings from this old Bama girl!❤❤❤

Growing up with 50" annual rain at 35-65 mph wind, your words give me a Cheshire Smile. Thx Go Herc

Hi Kyle and Shannon. Hope you didn’t wake up to a bloodbath and both turkeys behaved. Hate seeing any animals fight as they don’t stop hope you can get a solution. Sorry predators are being horrible too hope the traps work. What a God send all that straw is keeping the mud at bay and keeping the animals warm too win win. Stay warm take care and God bless you both. 💕🙏

I really have to thank Spruce for giving my idea to let the new neighbors know they make too much noise! I turned Spruce up loud and made same noise they got quiet soon! 😅😂🤣 🤣

You guys need to put hardware-cloth around the coop. It was just a matter of time. Chicken wire cannot keep out predators. Sorry for your loss, but you need to attend to this ASAP.👍🏾🇯🇲

Those turkeys are becoming mature,so the males are fighting to see who’s the boss

ALL SAID LOVINGLY ! ❤ AND YOU ALL LOOKED AWESOME MATCHING ! ❤ NEVER CARE WHAT OTHERS THINK , PROBABLY JEALOUS OF YOUR SMILES AND LAUGHTER BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU! ❤😂

Hi Kyle and Shannon, on the lower sides of the run put 1/2" hogwire on it just tie it on with zip ties, it is stronger than chicken wire. And will help keep predators out All my coops have the 1/2 wire on them its a little more expensive though, put it on the door too

The predictors now know where the pray can get are .make it stronger.

Good luck with the turkeys guy’s❣️LOVE 💕 YA’S & GOD BLESS 🤲🏻❣️🙏🏻😉🙏🏻

Crazy turkeys !!! It’s cute the way the goats and Hercules loves to love on you:) tfs and God bless:)

Looks to me that they’re trying to decide who’s gonna be the partner to your female turkey. The winner gets her so basically it’s dominance and king of the hill kind of thing.

We were getting to wonder when the guineas were gonna start placing bets 😂 and Christina was so chill ! ❤ Great teamwork as always at Shady Acres! Sorry y'all lost those other guineas though 😟

Well you fixed the goats, you fixed the dog, now it's time to fix the turkeys. I think that means one less turkey. Hope all goes well. ❤

Absolutely love Spruce’s ears!

Love the jackets and seeing all the animals ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Great video. You both make a great team together. Oh, to be that young again…lol. Love the matching shirts. Blue is really coming around letting you pet her. You can tell that your animals really love you with all the kisses you get. Sorry for the loss of your two Guinea’s. The Turkeys are big enough to show who the boss is in the pecking order. If you leave one out it may disappear before morning. You will figure out what to do with the Turkeys. Have a great week and May GOD Bless You, Kyle and Shannon.

No dilemma. Process the troublemaker.

wow, turkeys fighting for dominance! Let's hope they get this figured out befor one of them is no longer with the rest of the birds. I totally love Herc. and how much he loves Kyle. that is the kind of friends to have. Loved the video. Thanks for sharing🤗💕💙

Spruce is Special he needs love all the time he knows Shannon will always be there for him

Hello Kyle and Shanon Herc needed some attention. 😂 If you want to keep the run - you might consider wrapping it with hardware cloth. We turned ours into a faraday cage. (Shanon just said she needed to put hardware cloth up) It may be time to harvest or rehome a Tom. I love our chickens. I’m afraid I’d be too emotionally invested to get guineas and lose them at such a high percentage. Miss Christina is a sweetheart. Blessings ❤

My husband and I had matching sweaters. We enjoyed wearing them. Unfortunately I lost him in 2004, so that is 1 of the things that I miss.

It’s 28f here and not lifted for two days. We have frost on top of the frost. Any two males put together are going to fight for dominance. Natural selection. Maybe it’s time for Christmas to go on the table. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Larry has the cutest little white “Mohawk” on his head. It looks incredibly soft (is it?). There is an easy way to fix the problem, keeping to Tom turkeys together is no different than keeping two bulls together. They are going to fight until they can’t. You have to move one to another place - a different pen, rehome it, or freezer camp.

Hi Kyle and Shannon, oh my goodness i had not ever seen turkeys fight before. But im glad they settled down. Thanks for sharing

I love how on these cloudy days the goat's eyes are so pretty...their normally square pupils are round. Esp noticed on Blue and her boys. Spruce is such a trip! And Herc sure loves giving kisses! He is the sweetest dog, and def. is your best friend. Had to run over and watch Chad and Rae's live premier. But I came back to finish with you all. I need to go check you Dad's channel, Grandpa Doss...since I got the premium youtube I've not been getting my favorite channels being listed first like they used to. In fact, I get some strange stuff I'd never choose to watch in my line up. Oh wow...poor birds. So sorry you lost some birds to predators. Def. need to get a camera or two up there to monitor them. Well you still have that other bird house that you could lock up one turk in there and the other in the run. Gees why are they being turkeys? Christine doesn't look impressed. lol Love you guys~

Well, it’s time to process two turkeys, Christmas is right around the corner and one can be for the freezer! Turkeys aren’t the smartest birds around. Have a good night! ♥️🙏🏻

I thought for sure you would have had at least one of the toms for Thanksgiving. I was really surprised to see that you didn't.

The issues with the turkeys you have two toms and one hen, in my opinion you should select which Tom is Christmas dinner. You may want to replace the netting on the run with hardware cloth, it’s much safer for the birds.

Blue Girl is soo Beautiful love her fury legs like that n her eyes ears she's amazing 😍

There would be no turkey fighting if Thanksgiving hadn’t missed dinner.

Well the goats were trying hard to help get everything done.....hahaha. The turks are definitely fighting for who's in charge..

Hair Bear is so special to me .Spruce is my first but hair Bear I love that baby !

Love watching you's with the animals and see you both ❤❤❤❤

You can always use a game camera to see what is going on near your birds palace

That stinks about losing the guineas. The turkeys are likely going to continue to fight since they're both male and will be competing and it could get uglier. You might want to consider putting one of them in the other smaller coop to separate them. Keep an eye on them if they're both bloodied. You may need to put Vetricin on their wounds to prevent infection. You're exactly right Shannon. Hardware cloth is definitely something worth putting up and the sooner the better. Your best bet would be to put it right over the chicken wire. Chicken wire isn't strong enough for a lot of critters. The predator that got the guineas will likely come back now that it knows there's access. A racoon will often just reach right through the chicken wire and pull the bird and rip off the head. Given the trail of feathers I'm thinking it might have been a fox or bobcat. Fingers crossed that you won't lose any more. You two are doing a great job. Losses to predators happen. Unfortunately you're having to learn about it as well. Good luck and hang in there.

Kyle speaks Spruce 😂

It's so good to see you overcome your fears of the genies and turkey

Appreciate how hard you both worked today on this video. Especially at the end with those "TURKEYS". If it had been me, I would have put one in your old chicken shelter,they used when they were little. You both are great with all your "children". But you both looked really tired at the end. Hope all is well in the morning with them. May The Good Lord continue to Bless you with Love and ENERGY as you care for all on your farm. God Bless and keep warm.❤

So glad to that Christina stayed out of their way.The tree helped protect her. Just life on the farm.❤❤

I love watching y’all , your family is so great.❤

Loved the music guys! Never a dull moment at Shady Acres right? All the goats and goatlets and Herc, cute as usual! But I love my Spruce! When you and Herc were in the shelter and Spruce was standing against the side and pushing his head backwards, priceless! Shanon you really showed you muscles tossing that old straw over the side into the tractor bucket. Watch out Kyle! We may have to check Shanon's "musk-els" against yours! Sorry about the guineas and the turk, turks! You know Kyle and Shanon, Spruce's vocabulary is really expanding and the older he gets the more he sounds like his dad (Kyle)! 😂😂😂❤ I enjoyed watching the Dallas game with y'all even though we were a couple of states apart!😂🏈 Whew! 😮😉 Stay warm and blessings!! 🙏🙏🥰

A shelter with plenty of air is a healthy one 👍🥰🇬🇧

Sprucer got lots of energy and a huge goof ball 😏🙃😳🙄😊♥️

Turkeys can get high enough to roost if it ever happens that you can't get one of them in. I feel for you guys, they're ruthless when they're fighting like that. I had to laugh at Herc slobbering all over you. We have a St. Bernard/Dutch Shepherd mix & a Mastiff, they're both big time drooled. I keep a rag on our patio table all summer long because they'll just soak you. My hubby gets the worst of it because the big dogs tend to hang on him while I get the tiny ones. I noticed the matching shackets & I love them!

I think it's time to have two turkey dinners Maybe not you but someone..❤️ God bless❤

Take a peak at Hanbleceya Ranch video when he pulled in a chicken coop. A trench was opened around the outside perimeter of the coop and some of the wire was buried then back-filled the trenches.

I was impressed at the legs strength as the turkeys pushed each other around. Would a mini pen inside the big pen be possible to section off one of the turkeys? Prayers!

Always something you can do. Your G fowls are independent. If you want to be productive, get some branches and screw them in the trees above the run. You have trained them to be dependent on the enclosure. Good luck with that.

Hello, and all the very best with the turkeys and the birds .Thanks for sharing and take care 🙂

Cristina is looking a little ragged like she may have had a run in with your intruder. Also, looks like Thanksgiving and/or Christmas may be ready for freezer camp.

I would put one of the toms in the small enclosure that you took out of the bigger enclosure. Give them a separation for a while so they calm down. I love your channel I'm just saying it might help and keep them safe

Loved seeing the animals. Sorry for your loss of the two guineas. Hope you catch the critter getting them. Keep Smiling. Stay Safe. God Bless. ❤🙏

Circle of life. Let the best Turkey 🦃 end on your table.

Herc is so lovable and he is so grateful for all your love and care 😊 Blessings and love to you both and all your herd 🙏🙏🙏💕💕🥰

Your dad needs a turkey. Also Guineas like to roost so they need branches across the back of their pen for night time roosting.

TOTALLY ENJOYED WATCHING THE VIDEO KYLE AND SHANNON 😊

Wow you have testings everyday. Great work guys always something to clean. God bless love you guys New Zealand ❤

The likely reason the 2 Tom turkeys were fighting was bc one was outside the run & one inside. Either bc the one inside then felt he had claim to their “home” the run &/or the female turkey Christina. Having 2 Toms in the same run or out at the same time almost always results in fights…especially with only a single female turkey available.

The 2 turkeys looked like a mirror between 🤪

boy those little birds dont give the turkey boys much room to argue .lol i think the toms need there own rooms

Time for turkey dinner . gobble gobble enjoy 😊

Hello guys hope you all are doing great

You would definitely love chickens. And they give you breakfast

I think I watched a video about a man who raised birds, maybe turkeys and one day the toms went after him very seriously.

Looks like Christine has made her choice. Loves

This was an awesome journey ❤God bless

Those broadbrested turkeys are bred for one purpose. Grow fast, get big and be a turkey dinner

spruce is just sounding like his dad xxx

These Goats have my big Heart ❤😂

***Kyle or Shannon, i have a suggestion to help keep the goat shelter stay dryer for longer. For the first layer, directlybonto the wood, try spreading a layer of cheap cat litter! That will help a lot in the long run to keep the straw that they sleep in dryer! Especially for winter, you dontvwant your animals catching colds or getting pnemonia. That litter will help in keeping everything inc the plywood boards & the straw dry. Thisvon turn will keep all of them warmer & in the long run you also shouldn't have to clean it as often there for, less work for you guys!! Who doesn't want less work and more playtime?!! Best of luck to you & all of your kids for staying warmer this winter which is supposed to be a lot harsher & colder one this year according to the Farmers Almanac!! Staying healthy for you guys can be easy too! Buy some chicken bullion and drink the liquid when your cold of if your congested and feeling ill. We drank it like a tea one year when we stayed in Seatle, sooo goood!! Enjoy!!**
