Painted Turkeys from porters
One recommendation. Do not cross them with Paints, otherwise you'll get a mess. If you just want to create more Harveys, go by using Bourbon Reds. 1st year: Harvey x Bourbon Red 2nd year: Harvey x Offspring or Offspring x Harvey Just out of curiosity, where did he get the Harvey's from? I'm... -

Pencilled Turkeys
Pencilling is covered, but you can also ask me directly. Advice is always for free. :D -
Pencilled Turkeys
Pencilling is only showing in black-winged bronze varieties, therefore, Pencilled Black-Winged Narragansett are a thing. ☺️ I had quite a few over the years, also semi-pencilled ones. A bronze-based Pencilled Narragansett is not possible and shouldn't be shown as a result in the calculator... -

What variant of Turkey is this?
Unfortunately the pictures aren't good enough to tell the exact phenotype, but for sure a Jersey Buff phenotype and very likely a split base color. If you have pictures of his tail feathers, this would help a lot. -
Turkey Genetics ( Bronze Tom crossed with Royal Palm ).
Color wise it looks like the male was carrying a Narragansett gene as well. The lighter poult is most likely a Narragansett. If you have pictures of both of the parents, this would help to make a more precise determination. -

Which turkey variety has the shiniest feathers?
