I bought 4 turkey poults in the spring at the feed store because DH wanted Thanksgiving dinner. The bin was labeled bronze turkey poults. I have gotten quite attached to the little boogers but I am now concerned that they are double breasted and won't be able to survive as pets on the farm. How do I tell the difference between bronze and double breasted bronze?
They are quite the avid free rangers and get a ton of exercise. They are getting big and are about 4 months old but I don't feel like they look huge to me. I guess I am comparing them to a cornish cross in my mind and they don't seem overly huge for their age but this is my first turkey experience. Please help me determine if they are double breasted or not. I can post pics tomorrow if that helps.
