Answer 10

When we lived on our little farm, of course we had the chickens. I hated gathering the eggs and I swear that rooster was a demon in feathers.  We hatched some turkeys and I trained them by using a hunting turkey call whenever I fed them and they imprinted on me. I loved my ugly little "turk-lets", they followed me around the yard and all 5 of them would bundle up in my lap if I sat in the grass. One night a critter got into the coop and killed all of them and I cried for days.  

Answer 11

Chickens

Answer 12

Have you ever tried sleeping out side with turkeys around, the will wake you pecking you on the head wanting to be feed,and the steal the dog food when the get a chance

Answer 13

I've raised both. The chickens are still here, the turkeys are long gone. Can you guess which I prefer? Tho in the turkeys defense, I must say, they were very tasty.

Answer 14

I've had chickens several different times and I like them but never had turkeys so can't really compare them.  

The feather footed bantams were so pretty, the girls had names for all of them and made pets out of them so needless to say we used them for eggs only.

Answer 15

Well, we have wild turkeys in our back woods that come out at sunset.  They are noisy then.  We've had chickens back on the farm and they are noisy at sunrise.  So, I'd pick one of the other, but not both!

Answer 16

Chickens, their eggs taste better.
