The History of the Black Spanish Turkey
The Black Spanish Turkey holds a special place in the history of North American poultry. Many experts consider it one of the oldest heritage breeds on the continent. European explorers originally brought these birds back from Mexico in the 1500s, where they eventually became a staple of early colonial farms. At Game Birds Farm, we dedicate our efforts to preserving this historic and beautiful lineage. We don’t just sell turkeys; we provide a vital link to agricultural history for your homestead or breeding program.
Stunning Physical Traits and Utility
Our Black Spanish Turkey Heritage Breeding Stock stands out with its stunning, lustrous black plumage. In the sunlight, these feathers shimmer with a distinct metallic green sheen that catches the eye from across the farm. However, this breed offers more than just beauty; they provide excellent utility for the modern breeder. They possess a calm temperament and forage effectively, making them a perfect fit for free-range environments. We carefully select our breeding pairs based on size, feather quality, and natural vitality to ensure your flock starts with the best possible genetic foundation.
Farm-Raised Vitality and Bio-Security
We raise our Black Spanish turkeys with a heavy emphasis on natural development. Our birds spend their days with plenty of room to roam and exercise their muscles. This active lifestyle produces a hardier bird with a stronger immune system than those found in commercial mass-production hatcheries. We provide a specialized, high-protein organic diet from the moment they hatch in our facility. Our team also manages a strict bio-security and vaccination protocol. We ensure every turkey leaves our farm in peak physical condition, ready to thrive in its new environment.
