Last may we got a little bronze turkey chick (named Chirp) and he is now 9 months old and is my best friend. And I can't even imagine losing him so I was wondering how long he will live he is a little over weight, but I was wondering how long turkeys in captivity live.
 
I just seen on another post that there bronze turkey was 16 but I don't have turkeys so I'm not really good with turkey things hope this helps though

Is it a broad breasted, or heritage, my heritage have been like my chickens, 4-10 years, broad breasted are short lived, I think 1-2 years, longer if you manage their weight.
