Can I raise two turkeys with CornishX?

[pattgal]

For lack of space i am contemplating raising 2, at the most maybe 3 turkeys with my cornish X.....
I am thinking since the cornish grow so quick and a turkey would grow at a more normal pace, that this could be fairly attainable.
my thought is that by the time they got too old to get along it would be freezer camp for the cornish X anyway??????
what do you think? is this worth a try?

I wondered the same thing. I have 4 turkeys with 50 cornish x right now. Only two weeks into the project though. I kind of figure I will have to seperate them at some point.

Yes they can be raised together. But turkeys have different nutritional requirements so you odds of survival for the turkeys is better if you use wild game starter for them.
If you add water soluble vitamins to there water it helps get them get what they need.
