Turkey - Almost 2 Years Old Highlights

  • Mature Size & Weight: Adult turkeys typically reach maturity between 6 to 8 months old. Depending on the breed, they can weigh anywhere from 10 to 25 pounds or more when fully grown.
  • Dietary Needs: Turkeys require a balanced diet of commercial turkey feed, supplemented with grains and greens. Access to fresh water is crucial for their health and growth.
  • Brooding and Housing: Young turkeys, called poults, need a warm, draft-free brooder with a heat source. Adult turkeys benefit from a dry, well-ventilated coop or shelter to protect them from weather and predators.
  • Breeding Seasonality: Turkeys are seasonal breeders, with mating typically occurring in the spring. Hens lay eggs for a period of several weeks, and incubation takes about 28 days.
  • Temperament and Social Behavior: Turkeys are social birds and can be kept in flocks. While generally docile, toms (males) can become aggressive during the breeding season.
