@R2elk , can you comment on what turkeys need too?

 

[Timothy Menezes]

Turkey's need high protein starter, with added vitamins/minerals to support their rapid bone growth. Purina's turkey starter is 30%, Dumer's is 24%. If you go somewhere in that area for commercial breeds you should be good.

For slower growing heritage breeds, Nutrena's 22% Meatbird feed might be the most ideal.

Once turkey's are past the "starter" stage, you can feed them a lower protein grower ration.

The OP is in Romania, not the USA. Van has to shop there, not here.

Oh I see, well what do you have available to you there?

Ideally high protein to start, then a mid range protein to grow on.

Remember that they need more niacin, thiamine, methionine, lysine and other stuff than chickens do.

Do you have access to broiler feed? It’s usually high the the above mentioned nutrients as meat chickens need them to support their extremely fast growth.
