Male Turkey

Male Turkey Highlights

• Growth & Maturity: Male turkeys, also known as toms, reach market weight typically between 16 to 20 weeks of age. They are significantly larger than hens and grow rapidly.
• Dietary Needs: Young turkeys require a high-protein starter feed. As they mature, their diet can shift to a grower or finisher feed, with access to fresh water at all times.
• Temperament & Socialization: While generally docile, mature toms can become territorial and aggressive, especially during breeding season. Providing adequate space can help manage their behavior.
• Breeding & Reproduction: Male turkeys are essential for breeding. They are polygamous and can service multiple hens. Their mating calls are distinctive and often heard during spring.
• Meat Quality: Turkey meat is a lean protein source. Male turkeys provide a substantial amount of meat, with breast meat being the most prized cut.
