New Broad Breasted Turkey Hen - Tips?

[Molpet]

How long do your hens typically live?

The BBB hen was put down at 18 months. Last I got of those. Other people have had better luck with food restrictions and exercise. She was doing good until snowy winter

My heritage hens have died from predators. Currently I have a couple 8 or 9 years old. Still laying and go broody
The toms from predators or put down from fighting injuries. The extra jakes are harvested for the freezer.

 

[Hot-headed hens]

Hello Friends! I've added a white broad breasted turkey hen to our flock (Boo) so now we have 4 turkeys: 1 Bourbon Red hen, 1 Royal Palm hen, 1 Royal Palm Tom and Boo. They are past the quarantine stage at this point and are still doing the next to each other but separated lifestyle. The aggression at the barrier has significantly decreased. I plan on keeping this situation going on for at least a few more weeks just to make it as peaceable as possible.

My question is: Any tips about broad breasted turkeys? I've had heritage and I know this girl is a different bird altogether. I read that I shouldn't be giving her any treats and trying to give her some exercise free-ranging as much as she's willing to do. I know they don't live as long as heritage breeds and can have health issues related to their fast weight gain and body size. Should I clip one of her wings or will she most likely not jump a 4 ft. fence? Any information you can pass along will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
