Only when they try to fly but that's the reason you do it then they quit trying .its like having one short leg .

Think I'll try it on the young growers if I hatch some. Then they can range a bit more.

Is this a possible thing? Would they be able to hatch out a mix?
Not through natural mating anyway, waterfowl have long penises, turkeys don't have one at all, just a gland. It would be like a woman trying to get pregnant by sitting on a spot of semen. Theoretically possible, but has never happened ;)

Hahaha they can, but the forks in the stream would confuse most of them, and they'd end up in Detroit.
