I've got a turkey that I am feeding out and will butcher it in a few weeks and I was wondering if anyone knows if there's anything wrong with feeding her a high protein feed? I feed my roosters that are for butchering a mixture of cracked corn and the high protein feed and they gain weight...
Yes, I caught your comment. I was replying to the comment before that you replied to I didn't realize my comment would be connected to yours though. I was just trying to explain to the person that said it looked like a dirty floor that it wasn't. I'm very particular about my animals and I try to...
They do get layer feed as well. The poultry cell I don't know about I've never actually heard of it until now so I don't know I would have to check on that. As I've said before in another post I don't know if it was to you or not but I have not been able to observe her too closely yet as I have...

I have some roosters that I am going to butcher in a few weeks and I want to can the meat, can I do it immediately after killing them if I do it before rigor sets in?
