Turkeys

North Carolina

If you are referring to the red flap of skin under the turkey's beak then that is called a WATTLE.

The wattle is both a mate attraction and a cooling system. Blood pumps through the wattle close to the surface of the skin and ambient air help to displace body heat cooling the bird down. Turkey's do not sweat , they pant in hot weather and they allow cooler air to move over the wattles to help keep them from overheating.

capon is the name of a castrated rooster

there is no specific name for a castrated turkey

Males court hens by puffing out their feathers, dragging their wings, and spreading their tails. The male's head will change color as well depending on how excited he is with white showing the most excitement. Males also gobble, spit, and drum to attract females.

It s a little more difficult than raising ducks and hens together because of the size difference and the amounts eaten during the day but yes, they can. A tom turkey will not bother the hens but may harass the rooster who either needs to be real fast or real tough.

They're most likely in their roosting trees, but they might be on the move also. You're never sure. After it rains out, and you go out hunting, head for open areas like a field or meadow. Turkeys don't like to get their feathers wet, so they go in fields.

One pound of turkey should be cooked for each person eating. A turkey that will feed 10-14 people should weigh around 10-14 people.

They feed on seeds and shoots and bugs.

Down

baby birds eat all types of things such as bread and water and mushed up worms and needs a lot of water and needs feeding about every 15 to 20 minutes

It would probably eat a small one.

YES because pretty much any animal can have a heart attack.

Yes the turkey will become extinct because every animal becomes extinct .... IF we keep hunting them, if we protest against eating turkeys they WONT become extinct.

Turkey eggs usually take 21 to 28 days to hatch depending on what they are incubated in like an incubator or by a hen. It also depends on how fertile it is and how it is cared for. It usually takes closer to 28 days.

I don't know exactly, but I've almost hit dozens of them and they seem to get out of the way of my car every time.

It is estimated that they can reach a top speed of 25 mph.

A 5.5 kg turkey should feed about 12 people. A 5.5 kg turkey weight about 12 pounds, and there should be a pound per person.

Turkeys are most likely to be seen feeding from dawn until mid-morning and again around mid-afternoon. Turkeys are especially easy to see on rainy days as they are more likely to venture into open fields.

A hen .

about 2 feet long i love max

a small turkey! I think......

it depends on the breed if it is a heritage breed it should be around a year if its a commercial production breed it should be no more than 4 months old.

A 21 pound turkey should feed approximately 21 adults. There should be 1 pound of turkey should be cooked for each adult.

I have read on their official website as well as multiple blog posts that Jenny-O turkeys are not treated with hormones or steroids. They may be given antibiotics but there is a federally regulated amount of time after they are administered that must pass before the birds can be slaughtered, preventing any antibiotics from remaining in the meat.

Birds have three eyelids.
Yes. They don't show a lot but you can see them blink and they are closed when they sleep.
