I have one tom turkey that I was sold as a poult and told it was a bronze heritage turkey. There is no mistaking he is a bronze. What I wonder though is if he isn't really a broad breasted bronze and not a heritage? There is a slight difference isn't there? He is getting so big and it just makes me wonder if he truly is a heritage. He was bought for TG dinner, but is so sweet the family wants him to stay on as a pet. If he were actually a BBB then would he live long? Is there any sure way to tell? I could post a pic later tonight. He really is a fantastic looking tom! Nice feather coloring, terrific blues in his face and red on his neck, beautiful tail fan.
I tell my kids he looks so big and uncomfortable that the look on his turkey face is saying "I'm so big fat and uncomfortable. Won't someone please eat me?!". They're not buyin' it!
