Royal Palm Turkey Poults

Purely Poultry is excited to introduce the elegant Royal Palm Turkey Poults, a heritage breed that captivates with its striking looks and lively personality. Known for their dramatic black-and-white plumage, Royal Palm Turkeys are an absolute showstopper, bringing both ornamental beauty and historical significance to any farm or backyard. With their crisp white feathers perfectly contrasted by bands of shimmering black, these turkeys are as visually impressive as they are unique.

Though smaller than many commercial meat breeds, with toms typically reaching around 16 pounds and hens averaging 10 pounds, Royal Palm Turkeys offer more than just beauty. They’re known for being active, inquisitive birds that are well-suited for free-range environments where they can thrive. These turkeys also lay a modest number of large, off-white eggs each year, providing an additional layer of utility to their ornamental appeal.

What makes Royal Palm Turkeys especially noteworthy is their place in the world of poultry conservation. Recognized as a heritage breed by the American Poultry Association and listed under the “watch” category by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy, Royal Palm Turkeys are considered endangered. By raising these birds, you’re contributing to the preservation of a breed that holds a special place in agricultural history.

In addition to their conservation importance, Royal Palms have a tendency to go broody, making them an excellent choice for those interested in breeding and raising their own turkeys. Their manageable size and calm disposition make them an ideal choice for poultry enthusiasts looking for a breed that is easy to care for, while still being a standout addition to any flock.

Whether you’re looking to enhance your farm with a beautiful exhibition bird, add a unique breed for ornamental purposes, or simply enjoy the modest egg production of these charming turkeys, Royal Palm Turkeys are a wonderful choice.
