The so-called English turkey is simply a su])-variety of the common 

 American domesticated turkey already described. Careful breeding and 

 selection have increased the size and rendered them quite uniform in

 spots on the wings. Another sub-variety, valued in Cambridgeshire, is 

 bronze-gray, and longer-legged than the Norfolk ; these, however, vary 

 from a light copper color to dark, the latter being preferred.
