Anyone else raise Chocolate Heritage Turkeys

[RedRoosterFarm]

I have raised Chocolates for 3 years now and just love mine. I have hatched 46 chicks in the last 2 months from just 1 hen and tom.

Cant wait till i get more babies from them next year everyone was off to a slow start this year and i only got a few hatched and sold them

I never knew that choclates were all brown. For some reason i thought they had barring on there wings like eastern wild turkeys.

killed one way or another. i am in gilbert. if
you end up with a tom i sure would like to
