Perhaps a dumb question. Considering raising some turkeys next year, never have had them before. On researching breeds I see the BB white is pretty standard and cost effective. Question I have is can I butcher them young/small, say 10-12 (dressed) lbs for those customers that may want a smaller bird? It seems like an easy question, but was wondering if there would be well enough developed muscle and breast meat, etc. Looking at the smaller heritage breeds such as the midget white, the price is a barrier right now especially as this is an experiment, a new venture so to speak. Thoughts?
Thanks!
