Chickens are usually 2 to 4 pounds, so you'll want to take that into consideration for adapting. If the recipe you're making is the roast chicken recipe in Bouchon, that recipe is for a 2 to 3 pound chicken.
Indeed! Turkeys are kind of like bigger chickens in terms of how you cook them—if your small turkey is still bigger than a chicken, though, you'll want to take that into consideration in regards to seasoning, pan size, and bake time.
