Can't Decide

I'm going to get a trio of turkeys next spring to breed for use on the table and to sell what I cant use. I like the Bourbon Reds, The Narragansett and the Royal palm. There is also a unimproved bronze I really like but they are extremely rare. What do you think about a mixed trio. Maybe a BR Tom with a Narragansett hen and a RP hen. Would these mix well or should I just stick to purebred birds. Id like to have a little variety and color in the back yard, and I don't have the room for 3 separate trios. What 3 would make nice offspring? Any input would be great. And how about some pictures of your adult mutts.

If they are table Fayre only I dont see a problem and plus you may have a mix that you have never seen and love the coloring.

I'm definitely going to sell all I can't use, but I would sell them as mutts.

I'm not quite sure what an "unimproved bronze" is. There is a "standard bronze" which is a heritage turkey. I don't think they are any more rare than any other heritage turkey breed.
