    Imprinting on Turkeys

    I had the same situation with some Bourban Reds that i purchased that were 5 weeks old. They didn't have much human interaction before me and when i let them out in their big enclosure they all tried hiding in the corner.

    Review by '' on item 'Cornish Cross'

    Great birds to raise for eating. They mature in 6-7 weeks and are very good to eat. They eat a lot in their short life so have lots of food on hand. Very easy to clean also.
