turkey's

Belonging to poultry

Turkey's is the possessive form of turkey—the large bird native to North America, or the meat from that bird: The turkey's feathers fanned out in display, Check the turkey's internal temperature before serving.

It also forms possessives for the slang sense meaning a failure or flop: The movie's budget couldn't save it—that turkey's reviews were brutal. (Capitalized Turkey's is the possessive of the country.)
