I don't know very much about turkeys, but wondering,,,,,,, Would that wild one mate with one of your birds,,,,, and how would the offsprings turn out???

Yes she would if they could figure out the bundling fence.
Most possible If she mated with my dominant tom

One of my customers is at a huge warehouse in Ottawa. I just started working I think it was Thursday. All of a sudden I hear a huge explosion. Even the echo was like something from mythbusters. Then the generator starts screaming.
I later found out a hawk flew between 2 of the fuses and grounded out. He took enough electricity to power a warehouse.

Sorry about the power
Not sorry about the hawk

@homeschoolin momma the FB lady wants a tom to protect the flock of chickens. I told her a tom will squash chickens if they don't have hens. She still wants one. LOL

LOL Yes, there are all types. I once had a CL person who thought he'd just put the chickens in the backyard to free range. Didn't know they needed a coop. Needless to say, he never got invited over to see my chicks.

BUT A female turkey (raised around chickens) might work. Last year my turkey hen only plucked the head feathers off my chickens - didn't squash them. I just saw one of my male spring poults try to mount an orp hen..... and he has one female turkey in the yard.

I told her the price of a 6 months jake and haven't heard back. But I told her it would be around Thanksgiving before I could tell. I only have 2 Calico from the first hatches and think they are jennies. Hopefully someone else will have a cheaper tom for her

@Molpet oh jeez....

I was at lunch and her post popped up and i pointed her your way in case you had any extras you needed to get rid of. I assumed maybe she lost one and needed a backup...
