Heritage Bronze Turkey
The Heritage Bronze Turkey is a classic, time-honored breed known for its rich history, natural hardiness, and exceptional flavor. With their stunning iridescent bronze plumage and strong foraging ability, Heritage Bronze turkeys bring traditional beauty and performance to any homestead or small farm.
Unlike their broad-breasted counterparts, Heritage Bronze turkeys grow at a natural, sustainable pace, developing strong bones, excellent health, and long lifespans. Their meat is prized for its full, traditional turkey flavor and firm texture—highly valued by chefs, homesteaders, and farm-to-table growers looking for true heritage quality.
Heritage Bronze turkeys are excellent foragers that thrive in free-range and pasture-based environments. They are hardy, alert, and adaptable, with a calm and manageable temperament. Hens lay small to medium cream-colored eggs and often exhibit strong maternal instincts, making them ideal for breeding programs and conservation flocks.
