I have a few questions for you good folks that might know more about turkeys then myself which won't be hard seeing that I don't know anything about them lol.
1. How much compared to a chicken, how much do they eat?
2. Are turkeys are susceptible to disease?
3. Are they cold/heat harty?
4. Are double breasted turkeys hard to raise to egg laying age?
5. Do they have to be on special diets (double breasted birds) to keep them from breaking their legs?
6. Will their eggs be fertil if I artificial inseminat hens and actually hatch healthy keets?
Sorry for all the questions. I'd like to have all the information to raise and keep healthy birds before I buy them.
