Chicken might be the bird of choice for some this Thanksgiving.
Farmers in Idaho are saying there aren’t enough turkeys to go around this year in their area due to various reasons.
The farm owner said workers had to sequester their animals after a nearby farm reported cases of bird flu. “That kind of slowed their growth a little bit. We lost some that we normally wouldn’t have if they were allowed to go outside but it was a decision,” said Deborah Rae Engelhardt-Vogel, owner of Vogel Farms. “If they get bird flu, they are all dead. That decreased our numbers a bit.”“The heat did not kill them off, but it slowed them way down,” Cabalo said. “They couldn’t continue to grow and live through the heat, so their bodies naturally reacted by slowing down their growth.
The farm owner said prices have also increased this year due to inflation, causing the prices of just about everything from feed to gasoline for equipment to go up which is impacting birds’ prices.
