oatley Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 They used to have wild turkeys where I lived in the USA. Will they both be female - just trying to think of names but getting distractedby the gender question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAB Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 All great names! The poults will only be young when we get them, so though we are hoping for a male and female, breeder can't guarantee the sex 100%. We do know the colours though - one lavender and one black/yellow. Some of the suggestions chez moi have been: Aubrey and Lorelei; Sage and Onion; Machu and Pichu; Stan and Hilda; Jack and Vera; George and Mildred. I am hoping that when we see them something just clicks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
