Turkey Bronze behavior

The Bronze Turkey is the domestic breed of turkey that is very similar in appearance to the wild North American turkey, though it often grows much larger. These birds, though they have become rarer in recent years, can make fine pets or production birds.

It has been reported that Bronze Turkeys are a bit calmer than other breeds of turkey, making them a bit easier to handle. Handlers say that, when they enter their Bronze Turkeys' enclosures, the birds will come up to them looking for food. Like most turkeys, the Bronze can be susceptible to cold precipitation and should be sheltered from the elements. Often, hybrids of Bronze Turkey are sold as backyard pets.
