Turkeys

Trio of Bourbon Red turkeys 1 tom and 2 hens for sale-$65 or can sell individually for $25 each. The tom is ready and has been mating the hens so they should have babies in the spring. SOLD


Bourbon Red turkeys are a rare, heritage breed. Heritage turkeys eat 50% of their diet from foraging and have very juicy meat. Heritage breeds have more dark meat than modern breeds and self mate (modern ones get A.I.'ed.) All of our hens went broody and raised poults.
Here is a link to learn more about the breed

  1. That's a VERY good price for your turkeys, at auction here in the spring a pair can bring upwards of $100. I'm sure you'll sell them fast :)

  2. Dear Laura,

    Thank you for the link to your blog!
    I am enjoying reading about the history of your herd. What fun!
    We will have to pick a date to get together. Thank you for e-mailing all the info. I am learning a lot.

    In Christ,
