So there is an ad on craigslist for turkey poults, and the guy has rio grands and bourbon red turkeys. I am looking for a couple of turkeys to raise for thanksgiving/the holiday season, and was wondering if anyone has experience with these birds. If so, which do you recommend? I also have a flock of 20 layers that I was hoping to keep them with...and I have read about blackhead. Now I am wondering if this is a threat to such a small flock, or if it's okay to house them together? Any insight would be appreciated. (apologies if I posted this in the wrong section, I put this in here because it's more a flock management question than a meat bird question.)
