Our Heritage Breed TurkeysHatched on the Farm and Pasture Raised
Heritage Breed Turkeys must meet the following criteria: Naturally Mating, Long Productive Outdoor Lifespan and Slow Growth Rate. We originally started with our breeding stock of Bourbon Reds, Midget Whites, Blue Slate and Chocolate because of their smaller size, great forage abilities and their great docile personalities. Our breeding stock are free to roam our farmstead and always welcome every visitor. To be more sustainable rather than using hatcheries every year we hatch out our eggs from our own breeding stock. In the Spring we sell Fertilized Eggs and Newly Hatched Turkey Poults and in the Summer Months we sell Adolescent Breeding Pairs. From October until the end of December we sell our Heritage Turkeys for the Holidays. Our Turkeys when full-grown range in size from 7 lbs. to 22 lbs. Because Heritage Turkeys have a slow growth rate our turkeys take up to 22 weeks to reach maturity unlike the hybrid turkeys which take only 10 weeks to mature. We believe this slow growth is the reason Heritage Turkeys have a richer Turkey flavor. Reserve your Heritage Turkey Today. |
