Consider Feed Efficiency
3
- Solution: Monitor feed consumption relative to weight gain, especially in later stages.
- Explanation: As turkeys mature, their rate of weight gain slows down while feed consumption remains high or increases. Processing before feed efficiency drops significantly can save on feed costs.
- Notes: Particularly relevant for Broad Breasted breeds, which become less efficient after ~20 weeks.
