We are born and fed to grow up and be eaten its not fair. I’m going to tell you a little about us, us turkeys and what we think of Thanks giving. We stared out as a potential “symbol” of America, how did we become the main course of a holiday!! There are millions of us that are bred in captivity and then killed and sold just for people to eat us. About 45 million of us are eaten each year at thanks giving. That’s 1/6th of the turkeys that are sold in U.S. every year. In 2014 alone there were 235 million of us that were raised to be used at humans disposal.

While in captivity we are fed corn and soybean meal with added nutrients and minerals. We grow to maturity in about 4 to 5 months. This can vary depending on the weight humans want us
