How to Farm Turkeys and Cook Turkey Meat
Getting Turkey Eggs
Turkeys lay Turkey Egg. Collect them and place them in a Crate of Turkey Eggs for storage or decoration. You need eggs before you can build up a flock.
Cooking Turkey
Raw Turkey Piece is the base meat. You have three cooking options:
- Smelting: put Raw Turkey Piece in a furnace to get Cooked Turkey Piece.
- Campfire cooking: place Raw Turkey Piece on a campfire for Cooked Turkey Piece.
- Smoking: use a smoker for a faster Cooked Turkey Piece.
Cooked Turkey Piece is the single-serving food. Cooked Turkey is the full-bird food item. Both are edible.
Storage and Decoration
Crate of Turkey Eggs holds your eggs in block form. Cooked Turkey is also a placeable block, so you can set a roasted bird out as decoration or keep it as a food reserve.
If you are building a farm area, pair the turkey setup with Maple Fence and Maple Fence Gate to pen the birds, and use Maple Trapdoor or Maple Door for the coop entrance. Maple Boards and Maple Planks work for the coop floor and walls. A Maple Chest or Trapped Maple Chest near the pen keeps eggs and cooked meat organized.
