Price for a Breeding Narragansett Tom?

[HamKristin]

Hello community,

We have several beautiful Narragansett turkeys that we show at the fair. Our Turkeys won all blues, best of breeds, and Grand Champion reserve. We were approached by someone who wants to buy one of our Toms for breeding purposes. He is 8 months old. What is a fair price for a live breeding age Narragansett in your areas?

Thank you in advance.

The only area's price that matters is your area. Charge what your market will bear.

This spring I was getting $100 for a mixed heritage Jakes in northern Illinois. I usually don't sell because I invite them to dinner.
Most years everyone is looking for hens .

Appreciate the feedback. I am in Southern WI so maybe that's comparable. I just don't really know what to start other than what I can calculate what he has cost me in feed and his poult price.

Try Craigslist and local FB farm swap groups.
He should be worth more than my mutts

Just a little follow up I ended up selling him for $100 which I felt was fair. My kids are happy he isn't going to be someone's dinner and will live a life on a farm with some ladies
