Why do the Turkey’s get soy?Updated 8 months ago

  • Turkeys have a really high need for protein as babies (aka poults) and the only way our producer has figured out how to accomplish this is a little bit of soy and then weaned them off as quickly as possible

    • Without enough protein, the poults end up with severe growth deformities.

  • Hoping to avoid soy in the future, but not there yet

  • Different from chickens because chickens do not have the high protein demand as chicks.
