Thanks for your info. I love my turkey. This will be her 1st winter with our chickens. We live in northern Illinois, so it also gets very cold.

My Royal palms and Bourbons always roost in a Cedar tree no matter the conditions. If their Wild kin do it all the time then they can do it too. I do however feed them Black oil sunflower seeds for fat.

Helloo, great information, thank you. CUESTION, have 2 breed of turkeys, they are all together, for how long I need tu put the separate, to get pure breed?

[@MeyerHatchery]

Thank you so much for watching and asking this great question! The heritage turkeys reach breeding age at 7 months old. You will need to separate them them around 6 months of age to maintain pure lineage when they are ready to breed.

They’re ok to stay inside there throughout the winter ?

[@MeyerHatchery]

Thanks for your question! The answer is: Yes! As long as they have the appropriate amount of space so they are not crowded the turkeys can stay inside throughout the winter. Heritage breeds need 5 to 8 square feet of indoor coop space per turkey. 💖🦃
