FREE RANGE BRONZE TURKEYS
 
We started raising bronze feathered turkeys on our farm in 1992. Unlike some 'free range' turkeys that may be outside for a matter of weeks, our free range bronze birds are outside every day, from about 6 weeks old. Our Free Range Bronze turkeys are free to stroll around glorious grass meadows, taking in the fresh air & countryside every day.

Since turkeys scare easily, natural cover is also provided in the form of maize, sunflowers &, of course, the famous cherry trees in our orchard in Cookham. It is here that our four-legged chaperones (turkey dogs) escort many of the free range turkeys back to their evening residences each night at dusk.

Made up from over 13 different traditional bronze breeds, our free range flocks represent true diversity & display the natural characteristics of birds living in the wild… they are seen forming hierarchy’s, taking dust baths & roosting on low tree branches. All are raised on an oat rich cereal diet with no growth promoting nasties & additional nutrients come from grazing on the surrounding vegetation
