This is our first year keeping turkeys. We have 10 BBB and 3 BR. So far everything has been great! 10 are 4 months old and 3 are 3 months old.
All but the BR will be used for meat so I'm wondering, what is the best to feed them to fatten them up and at what age do we start fattening them up more?
Do the males have longer tails? What are some other ways to sex them? This is one I've wondered if it was a male.
At what age do the males fan out? After a year old? I'd love to see these guys fan out but I have a feeling they will be dressed out before then. Although I might be keeping all 3 BR.
Any other advice?
