3 has teamed up with a turkey farmer to offer its customers a unique way of choosing their Christmas bird via their video mobiles.

"The new service allows 3's 3.2 million customers to dial into live videocams stationed at Kelly's Farm in Essex to watch individually named turkeys roaming freely in a special 3G pen. Customers can choose to switch between cameras for the best view of the birds before deciding which one they like the look of. The service then gives them the option to receive information via sms on how to place an order direct with the farmer."
