The Ridley Bronze Turkey: A Triumph of Collaboration and Innovation

The Ridley Bronze Turkey holds a significant place in the history of Canadian poultry farming, thanks to the remarkable efforts of individuals like John Richardson and Judge Arthur O. Ridley. In this blog post, we will delve into the captivating story behind the Ridley Bronze Turkey, exploring the breeds involved in its development and shedding light on its historical significance.

The Development of the Ridley Bronze Turkey: During the 1960s, John Richardson, a distinguished professor of poultry science at the University of Saskatchewan, recognized the potential of the Ridley Bronze Turkey for Canadian farmers. To bring this breed to Canada, Richardson collaborated closely with Judge Arthur O. Ridley, the original creator of the breed.

Breeds Involved in the Development: The Ridley Bronze Turkey is the result of a deliberate crossbreeding program. Judge Ridley initially crossed a commercial strain of Broad Breasted Bronze turkeys with a heritage breed called the Narragansett turkey. The aim was to combine the superior meat quality and size of the Broad Breasted Bronze turkey with the hardiness and adaptability of the Narragansett turkey. This crossbreeding resulted in the foundation stock of the Ridley Bronze Turkey.

Further Refinement in Canada: Once the Ridley Bronze Turkey breeding stock arrived in Canada, John Richardson and his team at the University of Saskatchewan embarked on a mission to further develop and improve the breed. They meticulously conducted selective breeding programs, focusing on enhancing specific traits such as meat quality, size, and adaptability to Canadian climates. The team's dedication and expertise played a crucial role in refining the breed and making it well-suited for Canadian turkey production systems.

Historical Significance: The introduction of the Ridley Bronze Turkey in Canada marked a significant turning point in the country's poultry industry. Prior to its arrival, Canadian turkey farmers primarily relied on imported breeds. However, the Ridley Bronze Turkey quickly gained popularity due to its exceptional meat quality, adaptability, and suitability for Canadian farming conditions. This breed became a symbol of collaboration, innovation, and the resilience of Canadian poultry farmers.

The journey of the Ridley Bronze Turkey is a testament to the remarkable collaboration and innovation that can shape the course of an industry. From Judge Arthur O. Ridley's initial crossbreeding efforts to John Richardson's dedicated work in Canada, the Ridley Bronze Turkey has left an indelible mark on the Canadian poultry farming landscape. Today, this breed continues to be cherished for its superior qualities, making it a true triumph of agricultural ingenuity.

True Heritage Ridley Bronze Turkey hatching eggs are available in Canada through Breezy Bird Farms. Poults are also available for pick up only in limited supply.

Near where I live I found that there is an orchard dedicated to preserving old Jersey varieties of cider apples. This has been a good year for fruit because we had such cold weather in the winter and this was clear in the orchard where the trees were just dripping with fruit. There were several varieties that ranged from yellow through to pink through to dark red. The orchard looked great in full fruit but I can’t wait to go back and see it in the spring when the trees are in bloom. . . . . . #jerseyci #jerseychannelislands #appleorchard #trinity #ciderapples #preservingtradition #jerseyheritage #jerseycider #thisanxiousadventurer #digitalhumanbeans #alltheapples #anappleaday #autumnishere #autumn (at Trinity, Jersey)

The documentary, American Red and Black: Stories of Afro-Native Identity, sheds light on the struggles that Afro-Natives currently face with being associated with these ethnic backgrounds. Coming from two of the racial and ethnic backgrounds that have overcome, and are still overcoming, so much has made life anything but easy for these individuals. Their personal stories reveal the racism and stereotypes associated with being dual heritage, especially with being Native American descent. These individuals are forced to embrace one or the other of their dual heritage, and often face people trying to tell them who they are. As a result, many of the people in the film are on a quest to keep their Native American culture alive by learning more about where they come from, and preserving some of the core values of their culture.

The film overall did justice in depicting what it is like being an Afro-Native in today’s day and age. I liked how the filmmakers featured the stories of a variety of people from the Afro-Native background, including Sequoyah, Makah, Muscogee, and other Native American tribes. More significantly, they all identified with their heritage in different ways. Some were more in touch with their Native American Heritage, while others were more in touch with their African American Heritage; some were very informed of their Native American lineage, while others knew very little of their background. I felt like this was important because it showed that Afro-Natives from different backgrounds were similar in the problems that they encountered. I also found it interesting that the film portrayed the racism, oppression, and stereotyping of Afro-Natives among the Native American community, African American community, and the general public alike. For instance, the woman in the film from the Muskogee Creek community spoke of this community being insensitive to her African American heritage. In another instance, the woman faced the African American community being judgmental about some of her Native American traditions. The general public in essence were either ignorant of the Afro-Native culture, or were trying to suppress it altogether. As a result, many of the individuals of Afro-Native descent were driven to save their heritage in face of this resistance, but some did succumb to the pressure associated with their Native background. The dynamic stories in this documentary were pivotal in giving us insight into the plight of Afro-Natives.

As mentioned before, the documentary did a great job of including individuals from different Afro-Native backgrounds, who had different experiences with being dual heritage. I think this is what eliminated a lot of the bias in the film. The only slant that I noticed was that the film focused more on the Native American heritages of the Afro-Native identities, rather than the African American heritages as well. I felt as if it would have been more powerful if the individuals in the film were asked to share some of their African American backgrounds because it would have shown the correlation between the circumstances that both cultures faced. I know that the film was mainly meant to shed light on the complex issues that Native Americans faced, but the film was also supposed to portray to the audience why the combination of these two heritages caused these complex issues.

Although the documentary touched base on a lot of things, I believe that it should have educated the audience more on why the Natives are facing these issues. The documentary only shows what the Natives are going through, not why they are going through it. It doesn’t answer one of the most important of the 5 W’s: Why? For instance, one of the men in the film shared his personal story of his own family, his teachers, and even trained professionals trying to convince him that he was a black man, when he is in fact mixed heritage. Viewers are left wondering: What has driven his family to embrace their African American heritage, and reject their Native American heritage? Perhaps it is society’s prejudices against Native Americans has played its part. I believe that the filmmakers did not make it a point to enlighten the audience on some of these reasons because they assume that the audience already has a general picture, and wants the viewers to develop their own hypotheses. However, this missed detail is important in fully understanding the magnitude of what Afro-Natives are going through.
