Farm-Raised Turkeys Highlights

  • Meat & Egg Production: Turkeys are primarily raised for their meat, which is lean and high in protein. Some breeds are also good egg layers, producing large, speckled eggs.
  • Growth Rate: Poultry turkeys, known as poults, grow rapidly, reaching market weight within 4-6 months depending on the breed and feeding regimen. They require a high-protein diet for optimal development.
  • Space Requirements: Adult turkeys need ample space to roam and forage, ideally with access to both indoor shelter and outdoor areas. Overcrowding can lead to stress and health issues.
  • Social Behavior: Turkeys are social birds and thrive in flocks. They establish a pecking order, and males (toms) can be territorial, especially during breeding season.
  • Disease Susceptibility: Turkeys can be susceptible to certain poultry diseases, including blackhead and respiratory infections. Good biosecurity and vaccination programs are crucial for flock health.
