Standard Bronze Turkeys at Lazy S Farms are raised on 7 acres of alfalfa pasture. These heritage Birds are a rare breed, which Larry and Madonna Sorell, owners of Lazy S Farms, raise for The Good Shepherd Ranch. They are marketed by Frank Reese, owner of Good Shepherd Ranch, and through Heritage Foods USA.

The meat from the heritage turkeys is a succulent meat, covered with a layer of fat under the skin. The broth from roasting is a dark clear broth and makes a wonderful stock, which is sought after by gourmet chefs.

The turkeys are given no antibiotics and are fed no animal by-products. The bronze turkey is the most commonly grown and recognized by the American Standards of Perfection. Lazy S turkeys take seven months to mature. They are a roosting bird and love to roam. They are protected from preditors by a 7-foot fence. Each year Lazy S Farms raise from 1500 to 2000 Bronze turkeys. The Bronze turkey is an American icon and has fed America for 200 years.
