[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1729960, member: 25884"] There used to be several farms that raised pasture turkeys. I remember one in Middlebrook. 4-5,000... The poultry companies stopped allowing it "for disease reasons" and because they took longer to get to market size.... plus it gave the poultry companies a way to better control the turkeys and size and # of days to killing.... and controlled the farmer as he had to meet other requirements.... feed efficiency.... and the turkeys all were consistent in taste too... more bland than those raised out on pasture. Less predator pressure too as there weren't the coyotes like now.... There is a new "virulent variety" of Avian Flu that has been found in NC and SC and some wild waterfowl in Va.... big warning from VDACS..... they will take this and try to shut down the poultry shows again I bet.....just saw it on the Harrisonburg news although I had heard about it about 2-3 weeks ago.
