Thing about non-wild turkeys is that they are so stupid that it is about as hard to be cruel to them as it is to be cruel to an oak tree.

I was told domestic turkey chicks require the company of chicken chicks to teach them how to peck for food.

Yeah. I’ve heard of them putting marbles in the food so that when they peck at the “shiny object” their beak slides off into the food, strictly to teach them to “eat”. They take the marbles out once they “get it”.

I get the feeling the birds “suffer” before hitting the ground as much as the whale in Hitchhiker’s Guide.
