It's a very interesting topic. I've never known anyone that killed a unique bird as far as coloration I've just seen pictures. Hopefully majority killing these birds with unique plumige are sending in the DNA to the new turkey DNA study that'll give facts about these birds genetics.

Biologist confirmed it was a hybrid/ cross breed. His guess was a second generation bird. Simplest explanation was one of the birds grandfathers was a domestic Royal Palm. He said if they get out of captivity then they may roam till they settle into their own area. I couldnt find a local farm/breeder of Royal Palms but there are probably a few off the grid around here. Cool bird, still tasted like an "asspine" tree, lol. Z
