Greetings,
Depending on the breed, turkeys can be really stupid. They will starve to
death standing in a pile of food. Extremely careful research is called for
or you will be hand feeding your babies every couple of hours. It is not
fun. Muscovy ducks are fun and taste real good.
Bright Blessings,
Kim

Hi All,
Aside from the ongoing debate, here is a practical question. Since
turkeys, (the edible kind) are relatively rare where I live, I thought
they might be a more profitable bird to raise than chickens. I still plan
on raising muscovy ducks since they seem relatively low maintenence. How
does raising turkeys differ from raising chickens? As a larger bird are
they more hardy? Do they eat the same feed?
Still learning,
Tom Irwin
