The population level of this cross in our country is quite insignificant. However, you can find turkeys of this breed on store shelves quite often. This is due to the low popularity of the discussed breed of turkeys. At the moment, some farmers are beginning to actively breed them, and meat is imported from abroad.
The hybrid turkey gains weight very quickly, which by its standards is higher than the statistical average.
And thanks to a strong immune system, turkeys are more resistant to viruses and other diseases.
But it is precisely the rapid level of maturation, at which the turkey fully covers all expenses in less than 3 months, that is the main criterion for its perspective. By this time, the cross acquires a pleasant commercial appearance and gains 5 or more kilograms of weight.

The Grade Maker hybrid has a large breast and unusually fluffy plumage. This type of cross develops quickly and gains mass. After 60 days after birth, the scale already shows 2 to 4 kg. And on the 5th month of life, the strong sex
indyukov reaches amazing indicators, which amount to between 19 and 21 kg.
Females weigh 10–12 kg, which is also a very good result. Despite excellent vital signs,
turkeys can hardly tolerate cold and dampness. This is a very thermophilic species. Therefore, it is necessary to properly take care of a warm room for them. In less than 8 months, each turkey can lay 80 to 100 eggs. On average, 12 eggs are produced in one month.

Particular attention should be paid to the habitat of turkeys. It needs to be made dry and warm. This will serve as a good guarantee of health and quality of turkey meat. The room should not have windows, but the lighting level should be regulated. Since this cross turkey is not against long walks in the fresh air, and is characterized by a love of freedom, you should construct a small
stepladder for them — a large open space will have a very good effect on turkeys.
At the same time, it is worth taking care of a large fence, or cutting the turkey's wings a little, since the Hybrid is able to easily fly over medium-sized obstacles. Turkeys are often conflicted and are capable of causing considerable damage to each other. Therefore, you should not keep more than 40 females in one place, and at the same time more than 5 males. 1 to 8 is an ideal ratio. These statistics showed very interesting information about the fact that a female and a male between the ages of 4 and 6 do not like each other. This is due to the rather complex temperament of turkeys.
The dimensions of a good nest for Grade Maker laying hens should meet the following parameters: height 14–16 cm, width 55–65 cm, depth 60 cm. Such "apartments", capable of accommodating 4 to 6 turkeys, provided them with an excellent place for laying eggs.
To avoid all kinds of parasites, the proven method of taking "dry baths" containing equal amounts of ash and sand will help. This mixture should be placed in a small box, the ideal dimensions of which are 130x85x30 centimeters. As you use it, you should not forget to replenish the stock of the box, which will serve as a good guarantee of the health of the Hybrid Grade Maker turkeys.
