These are Bronze Orlopps and Mini Whites. They are 242 days old as of today. They have lived a good life with all day access to outdoors, good, high quality, local drug-free feed, and clean water. They are friendly and very calm. I like turkeys far more than I like chickens.

These guys go to the spa next Friday, September 22.

    I like turkeys a lot better than I like chickens. You have to handle them a lot and you have to stay in charge. We had a big male with hens that was aggressive. Meat birds go to the spa before they get mature and aggressive.

    The door on their hut is around 16 inches square. Even a really big turkey can get through that. They do roost at night.
