I have purchased Turkens from both Cackle and McMurry Hatchery. Hands down, the better quality Turkens by MILES come from Cackle. I even had a pullet from Cackle win Champion of her class at the National Western Stock Show (she is the black bird on my avatar). Good luck, they are my favorite breed!!

My bought my turkens from Purley Poultry like 3 years but they came from Ideal. There were great chickens 2 out of the 5 I got are always broody every late spring, they also lay big eggs. All are still alive and I love them...

I also got 4 turken roosters from meyer last fall and only 1 out 4 was worth keeping, the rest I sold to a livestock auction cause they were small and not growing well, but I made good cash on them cause at the auctions people thought they were half there age lol... The rooster I kept is very nice, I love him! He's red with a huge bowtie..

Once again I bought a few turkens from McMurrays this April I only bought 1 male, 1 female cause I had a broody hens in the past that hatched turkens so I just bought a few just cause I like them. They gave another free rooster, so I have 3, they seem great so far. All are red color 2 have no bowtie and 1 has a small bowtie.

All in all I would buy turkens from either Purley poultry, Ideal, or McMurrays. McMurrays seems to have abit better turken standards cause the turkens I got from them had no/little bowtie also they have yellow legs for a red turken (alot of hatchery turkens have green legs). But next time I buy turkens I'm buying from a good breeder.
