A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

Mine is J L Bar Farm, after my dad's family brand. I wanna know all yours now. I shared mine! The j and the l are joined along the shaft eith the bar underlining and it's a 2 iron brand. I've been begging dad to take a picture of the brand or burn it into an old piece of barnwood for me to mount, but he left it at his partner's house because they do the spring branding over there.

This is probably gonna sound bad but does anyone else get hungry when they visit their turkeys? I dont mind the pet turkey and breeder..but the others are starting to look mighty tastey...

I have been looking at the oldest poults that way Still have a couple of months to go

That would be such an awesome thing to mount! If you ever do that, please share a picture!

I don't have a farm to share the name of. We just have a little over an acre with State game lands behind us. Maybe someday though! We're calling the business One Mountain Acres because we have 1 acre in the mountains lol

Bantambird & Aurora....I like both names. And the meanings behind them.

Skipper....no....I don't look at my turkey girls as little smoked dinners running around.

Do we get to know the name? Or do we need to wait until paperwork is approved?

Sorry half sleep typing not nice when I leave out details.... 3 acres poultry is the official farm name here.

I agree, even though many of mine are destined for dinner-hood. They don’t look like food to me until the feathers are off. Then the emotionally hard part is over and I can start thinking about smoked bird (which IS delish).

Yum....smoked turkey is good! I get asked all the time if I eat turkey. LOL! One of my favorites!!

 

[OneMountainAcres]

I don't think I've ever had smoked turkey before.... Only oven roasted. I don't know anyone with a smoker lol

I went from oven to deep fried to smoked haha. Smoked is my favorite by far! There is a recipe in the meat eaters cook book I have always used for wild turkey and it is delicious!
