Smaller But Elegant
Royal Palm Turkeys are a rare and visually striking heritage breed. They are smaller and more elegant than other heritage turkeys, with males weighing 16 lbs and females weighing 10 lbs.
Their feathering showcases a beautiful color pattern, with metallic black laced white feathers giving them a unique appearance. Royal Palm Turkeys can be ornamental birds for exhibitions or can be raised in a mixed flock alongside other turkey varieties and chickens.
With roots tracing back to North America, these domestic turkeys carry a rich legacy that other turkey breeds simply cannot match.
For Small Farms and Beyond
Though Royal Palm Turkeys lack the commercial potential of other domestic and wild turkeys, their turkey poults grow into healthy birds that can support small-scale meat production. They may not be prolific layers like the hens in your setup, but they naturally go broody and produce light brown eggs with spotting. Their large egg size is also significant.
Royal Palm Turkeys are also excellent foragers, making them easier to handle for small-scale farming and hobbyist settings. This rare breed also has an active nature, adding more energy and vibrancy to your flock.
