Title: Turkey info.
Post by: The Woodsiders on May 14, 2016, 10:43:51 pm

Hi, can anyone recommend a decent publication regarding the breeding and raising of turkeys, I have looked on Amazon but am unsure of which will give me idiot proof information.
Thank you

See if you can get hold of a copy of Starting with Turkeys by Katie Thear.  It's the only one I've ever used and so far we have a 100% survival rate over the last six years (fingers firmly crossed).

Thank you MF, how could we have forgotten dear Katie Thear, we have several of her books already, we have ordered Starting with Turkeys. Thanks again.
