just wondering if there is anything i should be aware of....anything 'special' i should be preparing for putting turkeys outside for the first time..in 0 degree weather (we had our first mini freeze this week)
scenario is as follows.....
8 x 12 week old turkeys
plan was to keep them inside until spring but yeah plans change and they have to go out
last flock of turkeys, moved out at 12 weeks, died within 2 weeks from possible cocci or blackhead disease, so im wary about putting these out (but they've been brought up on medicated food against cocci/blackhead, the first lot weren't)
house will be filled with straw/hay but no electricity out there for a heat lamp......
they'll be ok.....................................................................................wont they?
