Turkey sure doesn't have to be dry and tasteless.  Dang, I want to invite you guys to Iowa to have turkey at my house.  I bet I'd change your minds.  Hickory smoked.  Deep fried and seasoning injected. Even baked in an oven bag.  If you had it, you'd like it.  It sure is neither dry or tasteless.

We are kind of without Thanksgiving this year. We were planning to go to the home of my wife's sister but my 12 year old woke up with a stomach bug and spend the morning puking.  We all stayed home.  No turkey for us today.

I am raising my own ChickTurk. It is a Chicken that is as heavy as a Turkey.

I crossed a layer with a Yard Fowl, and the resultant Cock is a heavy bugger, and he is only around 8 months old. I was just changing the tag I have around his leg today, and my arm is aching from toting him around. As he was hand reared once he got over the shock of being captured he just relaxed and never made a peep until I let him go about his business with a shiny new green ziplock around his leg.

Unfortunately homesteading with a need or demand for retailing the eggs means a breeding program of any efficiency is out of the question, but I hope to hatch a few more ChickTurks which as they are so meaty it may mean they will not need to be old tough birds before they are big enough to be worth culling.

I hate the normal Broilers that are killed at 12 weeks tops, they are clumsy, their crap stinks to high heaven, and they seem like plastic meat to eat.
