Are those shrink bags?

sure look like it....right? Fast? tell us more about use.

I've considered them but, only one to do the butchering makes it a not fun process. :lol: I'd reconsider if something helped. NO, not spending for all the plucker tubs, etc. Not worth it for just me.

I keep thinking I want to buy turkey poults, or breeding pair....BUT, then I remind self -- you only eat it a couple times a year and have 3 turkey breast in freezer right now! self control needed.

it's not bad. I get 20ish chicks and put in the tractor. at 8 weeks the kids and I do 10 and then the next weekend we do 10 more. usually takes about 2 hours to do 10 start to finish. it's the best meat source I have found yet besides venison.
