Halal is what the processing plant does

We did that today and even with a point blank head shot, it still didn't go down without a neck slit

I usually do the chickens myself but since it's a Turkey, I wanted it done. The initial kill is the hard part for me and my husband. We've tried different methods but nothing yet we're comfortable with or that seems fast enough

I called up the only local and licensed poultry processing company to make a Turkey appointment. Upon talking to the gentleman, he told me they stun (electrocute) the birds but they are still alive and then slit the throat. He said it's the most humane because they don't feel it but it sounds...

He might be Thanksgiving dinner. So far he just keeps my roos in line. I have 1 too many that will go very soon. He was also raised with chicks and becomes anxious when he's not around them I let him in my main yard by himself and he was fighting to get back in... I've never seen him do a dance...

Yes the run is 30x50, they get locked up every night The duck house isn't tall enough for the Turkey

I have a converted 6x10 dog kennel into a coop (just coop, not run) How many medium- small(silkie mix) and 1 Turkey tom will fit? I currently have 20 chickens (9 are chicks/smaller breeds so far) 1 Turkey tom 3 ducks The ducks are housed separately at nightfor now but idk how well I'll be...

This is great news!

I think I have 2 cockerals. At what age do they usually start crowing? They're about 17weeks

About 2yrs old. Any idea on what caused it? I don't think it was sour crop because she wasn't impacted

She wasn't feeling well last night so I separated her from the others And she passed in the middle of the night. She's my first adult to pass from anything but an animal attack She had a large squishy crop, clear/brownish fishy smelling fluid was coming out. She had vomited a lot of brown-poop...

I have 5 chicks left from 14 that I think have been battling coccidiosis. One I know is for sure They are extremely stunted but now they are starting to take on the appearance of a cornish x. (I'll post pictures soon) the naked underside, sagging belly, lazy, eating more(ish) They are roughly...

I had a strictly outdoor rabbit that was 9yrs old when I put her down for cancer She lived with the chickens, on the ground and did fine. She also tunneled alot but never tunneled out. The tunnel was essential for surviving the winter and summer, she was a big meat rabbit 12lbs. Rabbits do...

Well I may have answered my own issue. Little guys have lice😑, none of my other birds have it and teety birds can't fit in their spot. My first time having it

So I came home today and another 3 are dead. 2 more look poorly too. I told him I didn't feel right trading them in case they are diseased. He had a lot, so it would be devastating I weighed one of the bigger ones. It is definitely tiny. One weighed barley 3oz

I asked them and they said they would exchange them. He's seems like a nice person. I did ask if there was a possibility of them getting mixed up with layer breeds and he said no

To be honest, I don't remember the percentage. It might even be more, it's purina flock raiser starter. They free feed since day 1, and at this point I was rationing feed with the others. I think they're a leghorn too. I have 5 leghorns that are 4months old, and the growth is all too similar

Yes the first picture is current...I really think they're a laying breed. They're much more active (until they die😑), don't eat much at all and the legs are skinny I've also never lost so many chicks before. I know it's only 3, but still a lot for me because I view it as my family's food These...

This is a picture of my last batch of cornish x at about 5 days older than my current batch now. They look nothing similar to me
