Thread: When to harvest turkeys?

Ive eaten them at anytime of year. Some do taste like arse in the summer though. I think once its been cold enough to kill the crickets and they have had a month to loose the cricket taste they are good.
We do our ones in an oven bag, they don't dry out that way, slow roast them at 150 C for 2 1/2 hrs.

You could do one of those yankee things turducken or what ever it is they are called (not sure of the spelling but turd ucken dosnt sound that good). So you start with a mutton bird or a Quail or something, jamb it up the ducks arse, then you jamb the duck up the turkeys arse, drop it in a cray pot filled with boiling cooking oil and deep fry it.
