Providing both large and small producers with superb-quality oven-ready carcasses
As the name suggests, this turkey began life in Devon, and was originally bred by Mr. Thoms of Blackdog Farm, Tiverton. The lines resided with Mr. Thoms for more than 35 years until they were bought by Roger Finney for Holly Berry Hatcheries in 2003. Since then, this line has been one of the cornerstones of the Holly Berry and subsequently the Hockenhull business, and since its purchase by Hockenhull Turkeys in 2009 has been providing both large and small producers with superb-quality oven-ready carcasses to meet the needs of the most demanding customers and retailers. Consistency of performance is a byword for the Devon Bronze, and demand remains high each year. The Pure Lines of this strain are now safely stored within the Gene pool of Aviagen Turkeys Ltd.

*The expected live weights (kgs) can vary, depending on the management and environmental conditions, and thus cannot be guaranteed. **Oven Ready goal is calculated as a loss of 17% from the Liveweight goal. The performance goals are an estimate of the results that can be achieved under TFF conditions. As performance can be affected by various factors existing in particular TFF operations, these goals cannot and should not be regarded as a form of guarantee.
