If they are wild and flying how do you keep them on your own land?  Not being cheeky, just curious.

he he! Was thinking just the same!  Maybe you have to make a home worth staying at and two girls waiting for the lucky stag would tick that box!

Yes, that did cross my mind - but if they are wild and flying too wouldn't they wander off as well? The food and accommodation would have to be pretty well 10 star I reckon! ;) ;D

IME NOT MAD YOU KNOW. i just like setting fire to things, :P :P Wild turkeys, a bit like guinea fowl etc, got a good home, regular feed, a bit of hows your father why would they want to leave, same as a cat, they tame up nicely. Listen at you is that you with the chooper in your hand.

I will let you into a secret but dont  tell anyone else. THEY HOME like pigeons, what you do is you sell them for £30 each, and a few days later you get them back so you can keep selling them at £30 a go.

If it's slate turkeys you are interested in I can put you in touch with a breeder. I have some myself but not enough to sell yet.

Slate turkeys are a very old, single breasted variety, independent and fly well. They are currently on the endangered register. Describe your turkeys to me.
