Title: Turkey poults
Post by: ellisr on May 10, 2011, 03:34:53 pm

I have a question that will probably bring numerous answers.

What would you charge for turkey poults between 1 and 4 weeks old?

I charged £5 a few years back so I may go to £6 as the price of electric and food has increased so much in that time
