White Holland

The White Holland, whose connection to the Netherlands is unsubstantiated, originated from crosses of white European turkeys (re)imported to North America and crossed with native birds.

The White Holland was first recognized by the American Poultry Association in 1874, and today is considered a heritage turkey breed.

[2] They were also the base for creating the also rare Beltsville Small White breed.

[3] Standard weights are today 36 pounds for a tom and 20 for a hen.

The Holland is currently listed as "threatened" by The Livestock Conservancy in the United States.
