Putting turkeys to bed

Unlike chickens, the turkeys haven't figured out a bedtime routine.  They'd rather hang out in the goat's barn during the day so when I close the girl goats in, the turkeys can't figure out how to fly over the fence to get back to their own barn.  I know they could do it because I've seen them perch on top of the fence.  Just about every night we have to throw the turkeys over the fence so they can find their barn or we have to lead them back like the pied piper.  In this video James throws a few over the fence and then leads them back to their barn.  They're so clumsy and it's funny watching them follow us.  You can also see the tiny guineas amongst the crowd of turkeys.  They're very attached to the turkeys.
