Based on all the other misinformation that you were told by the seller, I would not trust anything that he told you including what variety the tom is. I also strongly suspect the reason he was for sale is because he is a poor breeder. You may want to put turkey saddles on your hens as a protective measure.

Good luck.

Thanks! I will look into that.

At least the one thing I can tell about his genetics, he is b'b' because you can see the black wings with no barring.

Of course you could ask @holm25 to teach you how to do artificial insemination.

R2elk has a good point. Getting saddles for your hens is a good idea. And Holm can give you AI advise!

Holm,I might need that instructional later. Once I get the midgets weight stabilized then I will start working towards the double breasted type that has been described in the literature.
