Item Description
The Bronze Turkey is a domesticated form of the wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo), originally from North America. It is characterized by its shimmering plumage, which gleams in metallic bronze and copper tones. This splendor gives it its name. The Bronze Turkey was originally bred for both its attractive appearance and its meat. These turkeys are robust animals and prefer open spaces where they can search for seeds, berries, and insects.
The eggs of the Bronze Turkey are oval, cream-colored, and often covered with small brown spots. A clutch typically consists of 8–15 eggs, which are laid by the hen in a ground hollow and incubated for about 25–28 days. The chicks are precocial and can walk and search for food shortly after hatching. The coloring of the eggs provides natural camouflage and protects them from predators in the wild.
