There is a resurgence of local heritage turkey farmers in the US. So I would recommend you look for a heritage turkey from a local farm.

You've told me all about the things I don't want to buy; what kind of turkey DO I want to buy?

Are you able to tell us any of the bird producers/killers that are more humane and that do not create just large-breasted birds? I'd like a "happier" bird. Diestel turkeys offer the original Heirloom birds (but also the large-breasted ones) - http://www.diestelturkey.com/our_family_of_turkeys.htm Can you comment on their turkeys and offer other alternatives? Thanks -
