I'm happy to hear you like Turken's meat qualities. I've never kept roosters before now and I'm interested in building and maintaining a Turken flock. It makes less sense though I can't find a use for surplus cockerels. I'm hoping I can sell people in-spite of their looks. I've got a great market for selling live chckens for meat. Just gotta convince people there isn't something "wrong" with them.

At what age do you process your extra Turkens?

You know... I'm not sure if they are white... As chicks they were but they are feathering out and getting different patterns. It's hard to know what they'll end up looking like as they are just 3 weeks.
I got them as hatching eggs from a BYC member on an auction here on the site. I would recommend her for mixed Turkens. Great price, eggs arrived well and I'm happy with the results of my hatch. The chicks are not pure for NN though. I have one FULLY naked necked chick, 4 with bowties and 2 feathered. So you'd get a mix. I've seen white NN and they sure are pretty.
Here is who I got the eggs from.
