Do Turkeys Love Christmas? Wilbur Does
A turkey has been spared ending up on the dinner plate this Christmas because he is too ugly, Will and Guy have discovered.
Wilbur is underweight, has no tail feathers, a misshapen body and walks with a limp. He’s the only bird remaining at the pick-your-own turkey farm in Totnes, Devon, England.
The turkey is in for a treat this Christmas as Farm owner Peter says he and his wife Jackie plan to keep Wilbur as a pet. Wilbur will become one of the family. ‘He might be an ugly old thing,’ Peter told us, ‘but we think he’s lovely.’
Lost Turkey Avoids Christmas Chop
A lost turkey has been named after The Great Escape star, Steve McQueen, after it avoided the chop this Christmas. Queenie was taken to the RSPCA’s “Stubbington Ark“, near Fareham, Hampshire, England, animal shelter after the creature was seen strolling along a busy road locally.
It is unclear whether Queenie escaped from a private coop or a farm. The bird will be ready to be re-homed, with staff insisting Queenie goes to a loving home with no chance of ending up as dinner next Christmas.
Will, who lives very close to the Stubbington Ark, has been told by staff that Queenie had settled in well and was fit and healthy. One helper told him, ‘After a few checks she will be ready for re-homing but her new owners need a good-sized garden, a run and have experience keeping poultry.
Will’s wife’s cat, Butser, also came from this same animal sanctuary after being rescued as a stray.
