Turkey
Behavior	Passive
Location	Maple Isles (5 turkeys) Player's Island (3 turkeys)

A turkey is a medium passive mob found on the Maple Isles and can be spawned on the player's island using a turkey spawn egg. It is the only way to harvest raspberries from raspberry bushes. Players can only have 3 turkeys on their island at a time. One turkey can harvest up to 3 - 4 berries before dropping them off at a berry basket or industrial berry basket or being spooked.

It is the fifth animal passive mob or the first and only medium animal passive mob in Islands.

Uses

Turkeys will go to a red berry bush, blueberry bush, blackberry bush, and raspberry bush and harvest it if they are not hungry. If the turkey's hunger is 25% or less, it will consume it and you will not receive the berry. If a player has a berry basket or an industrial berry basket, it will proceed to put the berries in the basket.

Spooking

Player's island

Spooking turkeys on the player's island will give the player any berries that have not been put inside of a berry basket or industrial berry basket.

Maple Isles

Spooking turkeys on Maple Isles will reward the player with 1 - 2 red berries or raspberries. They also reward no token when Fhanhorn is added.

Behavior

Like all animals, turkeys can breed. They can be lured and fed with any berry, but will have berry pie, honey toast, bread, and tomato soup as their favorite food. It takes 5 in-game days (1 hour and 40 minutes) for a baby turkey to grow into an adult. If they fall into the void, they will respawn at the player's spawn point.

Like other animals, if no troughs are in its vicinity, it will eat from a grass block, but doing so will not replenish its hunger meter nor give Animal Care XP.

Mounting

After reaching level 8 Animal Care, turkeys can be mounted by the player through the inspection menu, located next to the "Sell Animal" button.

A turkey can be rode on any island in the player's server. To get off, press the dismount button on the right of the screen. Players can still place/use blocks and tools while mounting. Mounting a turkey does not grant any speed boost or jump boost.

Dismounting a turkey while outside of the player's island will teleport the turkey to the player's island spawn point.
