So I recently purchased a laying lilac hen and a laying blue slate hen. I am new to the turkey world, but have a decent amount of experiencs with breeding different chickens, ducks, geese, pheasants, quail, and guineas. Just a little confused on turkey genetics.
What color tom would you use to...
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Not totally new to chickens, as I work for a veterinarian who treats them somewhat regularly, but got my own chickens the last week of August this year.
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
35 and counting, plus other poultry...
