this doesn't really look like a turkey to me
So I was wondering if anyone could identify if this is infact a chicken and if so what breed/gender it is

She's a chicken, and does look like a she. And I don't think a meat bird either which a BB turkey is. Looks like you've got the opposite of what she told y'all the bird was, lol. As for breed, I'm not sure, but maybe someone can chime in who is. She's really pretty!

I'm relieved to hear that. The thought of lumbering 55 pound BBW eating 8lbs of per week was a terrifying thought :lol:

Lol I can imagine! My friend bought assorted turkeys after being told they wouldn't have mixed meat birds with heritage birds in the assorted bin. They did, and she's now got 3 BB bronzes to do something with.

Oh dang. I can just imagine the cost to feed them. 😂
