Experience the Majesty of Heritage Turkey Mixes – From Farm Fresh Eggs to Holiday Centerpiece
Discover the versatility and grandeur of our carefully selected heritage turkey mix breeds. These magnificent birds offer so much more than just a spectacular holiday feast – they’re exceptional egg layers, gentle garden companions, and stately additions to any farm or homestead.
Choose Your Perfect Starting Point We offer our heritage turkey mixes at multiple life stages to fit your goals and experience level:
- Day Old Poults – For the complete turkey-raising experience from the very beginning. Requires brooder setup with careful temperature management.
- Week Old – Past the most delicate stage but still requiring brooder care. Easier management while maintaining that special bonding experience.
- 3 Weeks Old – Growing rapidly and becoming more independent. Great for those wanting to skip the most intensive brooding period.
- 6 Weeks Old – Well-feathered juveniles ready for outdoor housing in appropriate weather. Ideal for minimizing indoor brooding time.
- Point of Lay (28-32 weeks) – Mature hens approaching egg-laying age, perfect for those wanting farm-fresh turkey eggs and eventual breeding stock.
Garden-Friendly Giants Unlike chickens that can devastate your carefully tended beds, turkeys are surprisingly gentle on gardens. They don’t scratch and dig with the same intensity, making them ideal companions for those who want poultry without the garden destruction. Their larger size means they’re less likely to squeeze through fencing into areas where they shouldn’t be.
Incredible Egg Production Turkey hens lay remarkably large, rich eggs that are prized by chefs and home cooks alike. One turkey egg equals approximately two chicken eggs, with a creamier texture and richer flavor that elevates any recipe. These nutrient-dense eggs are perfect for baking, cooking, or enjoying fresh.
Heritage Breed Diversity Our heritage turkey mixes may include Bourbon Reds, Narragansetts, and other carefully selected heritage breeds. These represent centuries of careful selection for hardiness, flavor, and natural behaviors. These aren’t the broad-breasted commercial varieties that can’t even mate naturally – our turkeys retain their instincts, mobility, and ability to thrive in pastured environments.
The Ultimate Holiday Centerpiece When the time comes, heritage turkeys provide an unmatched dining experience. Their naturally flavorful, well-marbled meat from pasture-raised birds creates a holiday centerpiece that will have your guests raving. The superior taste comes from their natural diet, exercise, and slower growth rate.
Impressive and Intelligent Turkeys are remarkably intelligent and social birds with distinct personalities. Their impressive size and majestic appearance make them conversation starters, while their calm demeanor (when properly raised) makes them manageable for most poultry keepers.
