Yes I did..

Hello and welcome to BYC and they turkey thread!
I think most of us feed our turkey a variety of food. But I suggest game bird feed so your turkey can build a strong frame to support it's weight. And have good strong legs. Turkey love bugs, scraps fruit and veggies. They need and require a lot of protein in their diet.
