This guy is a pet of a man I met during work. I asked if the idea was to eat it for Thanksgiving, as it was pretty close to the holiday, and I was laughed at. He's far too old to eat, apparently.
This particular bird is a Narrangansett turkey, which is a rare type of heritage turkey, which are domestic breeds of Meleagris Gallopavo. This particular breed is a cross between the Meleagris Gallopavo, and the Meleagris Gallopavo Silvestris.
Judging from the picture I took, this could even be a Silver Narrangansett, which is even more rare, as the Bronze, and Narrangansett breeds are far more popular. Happy Thanksgiving!
