Turkey books

[fiberdrunk]

I was disappointed in the few turkey books I could find when we first bought our Narragansetts a couple years ago. Most books assume you will buy babies in the spring and slaughter by the holidays... I have always been interested in a book for those of us who keep them as pets and need info on long-term care. Probably the most helpful book I found was The Encyclopedia of Country Living by Carla Emery. It has a great section on keeping turkeys and other poultry and animals. Very practical information. Not for long-term care, either, but it will get you started and well on your way.

This is "THE BOOK" on turkeys, the link posted is to an online version but if you want a hard copy they are still around in used bookstores.
