We have had a flock of 15 turkeys in our yard every day for at least three weeks. Today something startled them and they were instantly airborne and cleared pine trees that are about 50 feet high and only about 50 yards from where they took off. They are large birds with a couple males probably weighing 18 pounds or more with 10 inch beards.
They are quite tame and they come right up to me when I go out to spread shelled corn on a cement patio. They have right up on our attached deck and look through our door wall in the family room.
No, only wild turkeys can fly. Domestic turkeys grown for eating are too heavy.
FLY
Yes, turkeys can fly. But they fly similar to peacocks, exept a bit better. However, they cannot fly like an eagle or a songbird.

I'll assume you meant to ask "How do turkeys get on trees". Although they are not as good at it as other birds wild turkeys can fly so if they want to get into a tree they fly there.
Turkeys can fly, but not far. They usually fly from tree to tree or from the ground to perch on a limb. yes turkeys can fly. they fly 55 miles per hour.
55 mph
Wild turkeys can fly so yes but they can only fly for short distance. Domestic turkeys fly only 10-20 yards . They are fattened for market , and it's even harder for them to get airborne.
Of course. Turkeys roost in trees, which they cannot climb. If you chase a turkey, it will run, but if you get too close, it will fly, just as a chicken would. Sometimes turkeys fly across roads, but most often they walk.
no turkeys can not fly at tree top level but however then can fly for a little bit jus not very high.
