Hello. We have decided we want to add some turkeys. We would like to have a male & female in the yard. They will just be pets, we will not be eating them or anything, and I'm a long time turkey hunter and never get sick of hearing the gobble LOL. Anyway, I have been looking locally and have found Royal Palms and Bourbon Reds for sale. I have really been holding out for a more "wild" looking turkey, but I will take a more domestic looking turkey if that's what's available. I'm really more concerned about their personality anyway. So my question is- Is either one of these turkeys ,royal palms or bourbon reds, better than the other for yard birds? Or is there another breed I should search out? Thanks for any info!
