As the old guys told me,

You do not eat the feathers.  

If we do not keep these turkeys up to standard weight,

Market weight and good conformation,

We will be in trouble.

Exhibition Turkey Fanciers

Narragansett Tom

2011 ETF National Grand Champion

Established in 2010 to promote the Native American Exhibition Turkey.

Exhibition Turkey Fanciers was formed in the summer of 2010 to promote this deserving and under-represented species of poultry by encouraging communication, fellowship, exhibition, and sharing of stock by creating a Turkey Breeders Directory.

As we grow the benefits of membership will include regular newsletters, eligibility for show awards sponsored by E.T.F. and its members, and much more. At present we will make this yahoo group our home, with membership free to all.

The American Poultry Association currently recognizes the following varieties of Turkeys:

Black

Bourbon Red

Slate

Narragansett

White Holland

Bronze

Beltsville White

Royal Palm

Other varieties may be shown in exhibition, but can only win AOV: "All Other Variety" if a quality standard recognized variety is present.

We have three forums we use :

Backyard Chickens Forum - Official Heritage Exhibition Turkey Thread

ShowBirdBid Exhibition Turkey Fanciers Forum

Exhibition Turkey Fanciers Yahoo Group

Polls

 Exhibition Turkey Fanciers Members List

Breeders of all varieties are welcome on our forums. Since we all have our own thoughts and beliefs, there will be no tolerance of inappropriate behavior. There may also be 4-H members on our forums, so please keep all postings “G” rated.
