Bourbon Red Turkeys ended up at Turkey Trot Rare Breeds by mistake, Bronze Turkeys were what I ordered. But they ended up being a good choice because they were easily distinguishable from the wild turkeys that surrounded us (and eventually tried to lead the flock off!).

There's good news for many rare turkey breeds now because they're beginning to be in demand for the Thanksgiving table. If we can't show that rare breeds are useful, the breeds will become extinct. Thanksgiving is a natural marketing venue for rare turkey breeds. While the conservation effort for Bourbon Reds has been the most successful, every year there are fewer hatcheries raising rare turkey breeds. Consider a rare breed turkey for your Thanksgiving table this year!

Conservation status: Watch
