butterballs
Round, chubby birds
Butterballs are small, round, plump things—most often a brand name for turkeys sold around Thanksgiving, or an affectionate (or teasing) term for a chubby person or animal: Look at that little butterball of a puppy.
The word suggests soft, rounded excess, like a ball of butter.
