Farm Turkey Wild
When looking for a farm turkey wild, don't rely on a photo placed on a website of a breeder.
Males of this species are large and exotic-looking. They can be used both as farm and ornamental birds. Some color varieties and bloodlines are more expensive than others. In some states, they are considered potential pests for agriculture and their numbers should be controlled by hunting. If domestic birds escape, they are well adapted to living in their natural habitats; there are many feral colonies of these birds in the USA.

Farm Turkey Wild -
photo, breeder
In some areas, these birds are protected by law; in others, hunting is legalized to control their growing numbers. They have no predators except humans. Given the choice, these birds avoid people, but if their numbers grow critically, they take up residence on suburbs, parks and lawns. They often cause car collisions, if found in the busy streets. In their natural habitats, the hen and the chicks are difficult to spot because of their pale brown feathers. Chicks often become a prey for foxes, wolves, or other predators. These birds are polygamous; males breed with several females and don’t participate in raising the young. Females make their nests alone and lay about 10 eggs.
