"Porter Calico" Turkeys
This is my own strain of tricolors that I call "Porter Calico", I first developed these back in the early 1990's.They have a Royal Palm base pattern with the addition of a rich orangish-red coloration. They are a much paler colored bird than the sweetgrass types, which have a slightly different genotype.
Genotype: (b1b1cgcgngngRr) Black winged bronze based with palm,narragansett and a single recessive red gene.
Unfortunately with their genetic makeup they can't breed completely true, Besides calicos they also produce Red Palms and Royal Palms which will breed true.
Poult color at hatch is basically yellow downed with or without a gray/black smudging down the back. All three varieties look identical at hatch so you will more than likely get all three varieties in poult orders.
We will include a couple extras to increase the chances at getting calicos.
Poult Price $8.50 each (Limit 8 per order)
A minimum order of 15 poults is required to be able to ship them safely so they will be able to keep each other warm enough in the box during shipping. So you may have to choose another variety or two to come up with the required number to ship. If you don't desire to place at least the minimum order of 15, we will not be able to except your request.
