Hmm you think? I bought him from a gal who ordered straight from Porters, maybe she sorted wrong. In any case he's getting busy with the White, the Bronze mix and his Black gal this Spring. We shall see what the next generation brings.

Dad is a Mottled Black, Mom is a Black so their kids are Mottled Double Blacks?

Can anyone identify if this is a BBW or a White?

These are the babies now.

This is my Mottled Tom, he bred with my Black Hen last year and I got ended up with 5, 2 Toms ans 3 Hens who I hope to breed this year.

Just recently acquired a white hen of unknown origin. She's in quarantine now but I'm wondering if I can breed her with my Mottled Black Tom? She doesn't seem to have the BBW figure so I'm thinking she's just a white.

Mine come with an exp date. I get them from Tasty worms which come from USA so I like the company, thinking about adding Black Soldier flies too. Can't stand raising em, ick factor too high!

These are my young Mottled Blacks at -18 in Alaska. Turkeys just don't seem to mind the cold!

The Dementors at -18

My Momma Turkey Lurkey

I know folks poo poo BBB for being so overgrown, but this year I raised them slowly, added lots of scraps(apple peels and chickweed were popular) and slaughtered at 18 weeks. My birds were beautiful, 14-25lb. On Thanksgiving we had an amazing bird. When I exchanged leftovers with a neighbor she...

Beautiful Buff.

http://poultryshrinkbags.blogspot.com/ My faves, excellent product and keeps chickens sealed for years! The turkey bags are super too and will hold up to a 40lb bird.

How many poults do you plan on hatching? lots!!! I hope to allow hens to brood. (Has anyone ever had a turkey hen hatch chicken eggs? Just curious.) Hey I have a Black that raised 4 chickens from eggs this summer. She was the best mom!

Hey there, it looks like you are here visiting now. Hope you enjoyed it. I have raised Buff Oprhingtons, Goldens and Rhode Islands here in the Wasilla area for nearly 10 yrs. I love living here.
