Buff turkey and Slate turkey are two varieties that are 

 between the Bronze and the

 bred for years in England, but 

 there are very few representa- 

 tives of this breed in America. 



Bourbon Red turkeys were 

 originated in Kentucky. They 

 compare both in size and other 

 characteristics with the mam- 

 moth Bronze, the only difference being that they are 

 red instead of bronze.
