A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

The Porters turkey color calculator is so cool. Would be a bronze @Bantambird . Well, according to the calculator.

I've heard Bourbons are pretty user friendly. They were first on my list until I discovered the big colorful world of Turkeys.

Definitely my slate Daisy. She will hop in my lap & settle down for a nap. My Bourbon, Annie, is also a lapper but Daisy seems to always gets to my lap first. They have different personalities. Both are great!

What are the most friendly breed of Turkeys everyone has had?

Mr. T has been my friendliest. His last GFs were crazier tham hell and his britgers were mean.

@MinnesotaNice you can come to my wedding in about 5-10 yearslol. If I am like my dad I will be married in three....

Holm, we'll all come to your wedding! .

MNnice....my Bourbon hen is a hoot! She has to get her beak in the middle of anything I'm doing! She is also the most vocal. She doesn't hesitate to let you know what she thinks. And she is my little fashion critic. I don't think you can go wrong with any heritage breed! I'd keep an eye on what Mr. T is producing and JJ. Those are both very nice toms and I'd look for something from either one in hopes they pass on their sweet temperaments.

And what the heck! Annie is molting!!!

Memphis LOL!

I really hope I can get Mr. T babies. I still worry about him being sterile... If he is it looks like I am gonna have a useless pet lol! I have a feeling he is gonna be around for awhile. If I dont get any babies from him and his girls I will just find another tom... A very colorful one

I sure hope he produces! He's beautiful and a nice guy!!

It would be a shame if he is sterile. He is such a good looking well behaved guy.

He has naiked my Aunt a time or two when he was young but thats what happens when you tease them. He has never came at me or acted like he was gonna. But I have always carried him and he knows I am boss.

Temperament is huge in a breeding program. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Mr. T babies! I know with our dogs, we can look at seman under a microscope to check for motility. Can you do that with a turkey?
