That first picture there isn't a REAL Rhode island red, is it? Your Turkey is absolutely beautiful! And I love the cream legbar, nice crest, do you sell them?

Nope its even better

!! Its a Buckeye cockerel. I am breeding Buckeyes starting in December! I have two beautiful trios of them from a great breeder! They went to State fair in 4H too.

No I go them from a friend of mine who breeds them. He is on BYC and I am sure you know who he is!

That's awesome! I've got a friend that breeds buckeyes, and she is technically on BYC, just not active anymore. Am I supposed to guess who your friend is, or are you gonna tell me? Lol

Just some pics of the birds

Nice Buckeye. I think they would be great birds to breed.
Nice Calico tom! Do you know what was used to make them?

Thanks!

I have NO clue! Some very experienced turkey people couldnt even figure it out! The people we got him from had "Royal Palms" and "Bourbon Reds". But it is physically impossible to get a Calico from that breeding!
