>> I remember a shiur of Kosher tidbits on OU Radio  a  while back that
addressed the Turkey issue (among others) and mentioned that  besides the
simanim and the fact that it has been eaten for hundreds of years  there is
one other factor.  There  was an Amora brought that  claimed to be familiar
with all of the prohibited species of fowl.   Since he obviously could not
have been familiar with Turkey, that would  indicate that it was not a
prohibited species. <<


>>>>>
 
Does that mean that all New World birds are kosher?
