Porter's Rare Heritage Turkeys


2027 Shipping Changes

Beginning in 2027, we will no longer ship turkey poults. Poults will be available for local pickup in the Northern Indiana / Southern Michigan area. See our Ordering Policy page for more information.

We will instead offer hatching eggs shipped via UPS only.

Due to recent changes by USPS that have made shipping live poults increasingly unreliable, we have decided that we can no longer risk the birds or our business relying on a shipping system we cannot control.

We have successfully tested shipping hatching eggs through UPS during the 2026 season and are pleased with the results.






My book on the genetic study of the "Painted Turkey" variety is now available in either paperback or eBook.
Forty pages packed with tons of information on the origin and genetic research of a new gene and variety. Includes over 100 pictures.
