Red Bourbon Turkey Hatching Eggs

Bred for Size, Color, and Traditional Turkey Type

If you’ve been looking for Red Bourbon turkey hatching eggs from birds selected with intention, you’re in the right place.

At Bryant’s Roost, our Red Bourbons are bred for the qualities that make this heritage breed so striking and valuable to preserve: rich red feather color, larger body size, and bearded hens that stand out in the flock. These are not just random hatchery birds thrown together. These are carefully selected breeding turkeys chosen for the traits we want to carry forward.

Whether you’re building your own breeding program, growing out birds for your homestead, or adding a true heritage turkey to your farm, these eggs come from a flock bred with purpose.

Why Choose Our Red Bourbon Turkey Eggs?

Red Bourbons are known for their beautiful deep mahogany-red plumage, calm farm presence, and classic heritage turkey type. We’ve focused our breeding program on birds that offer more than just the name.

Our flock has been selected for:

• Larger size

• Bearded hens

• Strong traditional Red Bourbon coloring

• Breeding quality traits

• Healthy, active birds raised with care

That means when you purchase hatching eggs from us, you’re getting eggs from a flock that has been intentionally improved—not just maintained.

Bearded Hens

A feature we especially enjoy in this flock is our bearded hens.

That extra bit of character makes these birds stand out and adds another layer of interest for breeders who appreciate unique and eye-catching heritage stock. Bearded hens are one of those traits that make a flock feel special, and we are proud to be selecting for them in our program. Bearded hens is a unique trait and not understood genetically. It appears it is polygenic and I started casually selecting for it a few years ago. I have made more of an effort in the last 2 years and for 2026, all hens are bearded and being bred back to sire. It is possible that all offspring won’t all be bearded, but we shall see in a few months!

For Breeders, Homesteaders, and Heritage Poultry Keepers

These Red Bourbon turkey hatching eggs are a great fit for:

• Breeders wanting to improve or start a Red Bourbon line

• Homesteaders raising their own heritage turkeys

• Poultry keepers who value traditional breeds

• Farms looking for beautiful, productive birds with presence

If you care about flock quality on the front end, starting with strong breeding stock matters. We eat our extra birds in an effort to be more self sufficient. Hatched now, you will have some large enough in November for harvest. They obtain full size at 2 years. How we choose to maximize meat yield, is to harvest as needed. This gives us meat without overloading freezers and continues to increase meat yield.

Hatching Egg Information

Our hatching eggs are collected from our carefully selected breeder flock and packed with care for shipment.

Because these are shipped hatching eggs, hatch rates can never be guaranteed due to factors outside our control such as:

• shipping handling

• incubation practices

• temperature fluctuations

• humidity management

• egg handling after arrival

We do everything we can on our end to send clean, well-formed eggs from healthy breeding birds.

Important Note About Turkey Egg Availability

Turkey eggs are naturally seasonal and limited, and availability can change quickly depending on lay rate and flock production.

If Red Bourbon turkey eggs are listed as available, that means they are currently being offered from our breeder flock. If they are out of stock, check back, because turkey egg supply can move fast during the season. I get 7 eggs per day on average, therefore orders over 14 eggs may be shipped separately. I am also hatching and know my fertility rate and send extras with each order.
