This film examines the courtship and mating behavior of domestic white turkeys, highlighting the sequence of actions each bird follows in response to specific cues from its mate. It details the female turkey's reactions to the male's display and treading behavior, as well as the stimuli that trigger sexual responses in both sexes. Experimental demonstrations show how models of a female can elicit sexual behavior from the male, emphasizing the role of the female's head in this process. Additionally, the program describes methods for assessing the sexual vitality of male turkeys within a flock.
