    Turkeys For 2013

    We have 2 BBB toms and 2 BBW hens that never leave our side. The toms were hand raised at less than a week old and are now 8 months old and weigh in at 60lbs each. The hens are 1 1/2 yrs old and weigh in at 30lbs due to we really watch their diets so they don't become too big.
