Storey's Guide to Raising Turkeys, 3rd Edition: Breeds, Care, Marketing

Super happy with this book. It’s basic enough to explain to children (parts of it) but technical enough to stretch my brain.

Not a fan of Turkeys, but hey as long as there are people who like them and willing to purchase, I don't see anything wrong with keeping some in the future when I start my family farm in the future. This book seems to give a comprehensive information on raising and keeping Turkeys. Not too surprised since Storey's Guides are usually full of information, something they share common to the Rodale Press books on Organic Farming.

I have a decent sized size piece if land and was contemplating getting some wild turkeys just to have them. They are such majestic animals. This book gave me a lot to think about and kept me from impulsively going for it.

Lengthy book with a lot of good information.

Just now started raising a few turkeys as a hobby and as using them for pets/bug eaters. This is a great book so far for a novice like myself. I have enjoyed reading about the history of turkeys, and the various kinds of turkeys (origins, features, history, etc.). It has also educated me on how to build my pen and how to keep the flock safe and healthy. I was doing a few things wrong; I was unsure about others, but this book answered those questions. Would have liked color pics to see the difference in birds but I know that makes a book more expensive to purchase. Also, it is written as if the author is talking to you, not clinical but fun to read.

This is a good book and goes into detail about Turkeys and their housing, breeding, feeding and so on. We are going to be starting a hobby farm soon and thought that we'd like to raise some heritage Turkeys as part of our poultry flock. Come to find out, you should keep Turkeys about a football field's length away from chickens or else they can catch terrible diseases. This doesn't fit in with our plans so it was good to find it out now, not after we've already got the birds. I still enjoyed reading the book and now I know a lot more about Turkeys than I did before.

There was lots of great info here and the breeding section is for all poultry.

A very well written informative book. A must have book if you are thinking you would like to raise a few Turkeys for Christmas dinner.We have a smallholding and thought it a good idea to raise our own Turkeys, this book gave us all the information we needed to make an informed decision. Sadly we would need more land to keep the Turkeys away from our Chickens. It's all in the book about why and how.Every farm and smallholding is different so you may decide to raise your turkeys after reading this. It also gives you good insight as to how your Turkey should be raised if you choose a near by farm or smallholding to purchase your Turkey/s from.
