Chasing the Ladies: Turkey Getting Frisky!

Black Feather, our tom turkey, is just a teen at 7 months, but starting his mating rituals. Hey, a little rough there!

Great looking Tom and the girls!!!

Thanks, they are getting so personable!

🇧🇷 Good morning, what beautiful birds, here in my region the turkeys are black or crossbred, these have a well-defined pattern, I had not yet seen a lavender-colored turkey. I live in the city of Angelim, state of Pernambuco - Brazil. Strong hug, God bless your family.

[@hummingbirdheightsfarm]

We have one tom and 5 hens. Had two others but they were too small for my giant tom to breed them! They both have new homes

He’s being mean 😢put him on the table 😂

[@hummingbirdheightsfarm]

Can't! He's the only way I can get new babies! But once hatched, he better watch out!

[@hummingbirdheightsfarm]

Well he's in the freezer now, new batch of Tom's are getting ready for next spring!

[@Turkeybirdlover]

NOOOOOO

[@hummingbirdheightsfarm]

Sorry, he was mean, but we got a new young Tom who is going to be a huge improvement, all white and a beauty at 3 months old he is taller than the hens!

What is breading age turkey birds .

[@hummingbirdheightsfarm]

They can breed as young as 9 months, when they have established egg laying for a couple of months usually just springtime into summer, but 2 of mine are still laying!
