We have 2 heritage bronze turkeys that are now 8 weeks old. I don’t know if we have a pair male or female? I’m new here so if I’m in the wrong thread/group please tell me.
I just got a hen whom I'm almost sure is a Bronze and she is a very sweet gentle girl but she has developed some issues.
I bought her a couple days ago from a lady who can't maintain her flock anymore and she was the only turkey there. The day we were going to pick her up the owner called and...
Our Broad Breasted Bronze Turkey Poults hatched.
Of the 10 eggs we had... 6 were fertilized. Two pipped and failed. One never pipped. We have 3 turkey poults.

Love these guys.

I got two turkey poults 6 weeks ago (when they were two weeks old) and the lady was almost positive they were a male (the darker one) and a female (the lighter one). However I’m just not sure and obviously it’s extremely difficult to sex young turkeys. I was told they were a mix of Bourbon Red...
My bronze turkey, Gladys, is laying eggs now. So cool. The first few were twin yolks. I'm noticing that the yolk is much thicker than a chicken egg.
How will my dishes change when I use Turkey egg instead of Chicken egg?
Do you have any Turkey Egg specific recipes?
Any tips for breaking the...
So the plan was to buy some Narragansetts (or something similar) this year and raise to sell for eating, and so I can collect the feathers. Then I found Porter's crossbreed turkeys and am in love with the pencilled palms and similar. I am wondering if anyone here has the pencilled or any other...
Do Opal, Bronze, Peach and other color variants still show the same barring that Blue do? I know Black Shoulder is a whole different set of rules, but for "regular" Non-BS colors do the same basic barring rules apply? I cannot find many pictures, or accurately labeled pictures, of peachicks in...
