Timber the Turkey

Tom the Turkey came to us over weight and in poor health.  With genetic modifications and hormone treatments made to many fowl, most turkeys are altered to be double breasted with rapid weight gain.  This causes turkeys to have heart attacks or broken bones before 6 months of age.

This is Tom now known as Timber the Turkey.

He says Gobble Gobble he is very thankful he will NOT be on the dinner table!!!

P.S. He is showing off his snood and wattle to his girlfriend Tina Turkey.;
