Turkins are not a cross between a chicken and turkey. They are 100% chicken. You can order them as chicks from some hatcheries. You can cross pheasants and chickens. There is a difference between animals of different species mating and whether there is enough genetic compatibility for fertilization to occur. Then there has to be enough compatibility on top of that for a fetus to grow to term.
