    Male or female turkeys?

    I have a few Narragansett’s that I’ve been trying to sex, but I’m still not 100% sure. I wanted to get some opinions on here. They were born in the middle of April, so they’re going on about 9 months now. I’m thinking they’re all hens since I’ve never seen any of them strut or gobble. I also...

    Molt or something else?

    @HeritageFan This is a photo of him before he lost his feathers. I’m not sure if it’s due to feather loss or the lighting in the other photo but he looks quite a bit darker here.

    Molt or something else?

    These are from before they lost a lot of their feathers. They both seem to be lighter in color than yours

    Molt or something else?

    I am more new to owning turkeys and this is their first breeding season. I have noticed one has always been more dominant over the other and was the first to breed the hens so that will be the one we keep. Hopefully we will be able to sell him this weekend and keep everyone in the coop happy and...

    Molt or something else?

    I actually got him from a local breeder as a poultry and as far as I know he was supposed to be full bourbon red, but 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thank you for the photos and the insight! I am newer to owning turkeys so I am still learning! I don’t have space to separate him where they can’t see each other so I am...

    Molt or something else?

    Gotcha. Their feathers would look better to only keep one then? I’ve been trying to decide which one to get rid of but it’s so difficult

    Molt or something else?

    Do they grow back? What about the tail fans? It’s just the toms that are missing feathers, not the hens

    Molt or something else?

    Hello, just wanted to share a picture of my Tom to find out if this feather loss is due to a molt or possibly something else? I have another tom in there and they do fight sometimes but they have also been breeding a lot. Or does this look like something caused by mites or lice? He is happy...

    Breed? Black Australorp?

    Just got a few chickens from a swap meet and the guy claims that they are black australorps. From everything I read online I believe they are, but just wanted to come on here to get some other opinions! Thanks in advance!

    Thanks! I tried it out once, and they seemed to do alright but I got nervous after reading some posts and moved them back.

    Bourbon reds adults and broad breasted white poults

    I have some adult (one year old) bourbon red turkeys and I have some broad breasted white poults who are now 8 weeks and getting pretty large. I currently have them housed with some Narragansett poults that are about 5 weeks old. The broad breasted are becoming very large very quickly and are...
