Hey there , i currently have some turkey poults on order because I simply love the personality of them. I have raised chickens as pets with awesome success and love them dearly . I however am looking looking to raise my turkeys for meat , I may just be overthinking or worrying myself ( what I’m good at lol) for nothing I have developed a fear that I may somehow feed my turkey something that may harm a human apon consumption!! Am I just thinking silly thoughts ? Overthinking ?
As long as I stick to a turkey feed and some veggies every now and then is there anything to fear ?
I would REALLY APPRECIATE any feedback and reassurance I can get from you folks I know I can do it I just maybe done have the faith in myself I need ?
Thank you so much in advance
 
I wouldn't worry about that, pretty much at all.
Almost anything you would feed a turkey that would make it unfit for human consumption would cause visible symptoms/death in the bird before the concentration got bad enough to affect a human consuming the meat. Just don't feed the birds moldy/spoiled food (of any kind) and you should have nothing to worry about.
