Poult to Processing = 3-5 months
mid-June thru mid-November = 5 months

Producers can make up the time

On my way to work last week, I saw a turkey standing on the Jersey barrier as I drove by. In lieu of this shortage, wish I had a chance to cap him. B-)

Then again, we have a load of Canadian geese around, they are vermin but I’m sure would make a good meal.

My husband prefers chicken, so I guess that’s what we’ll be having.

Even at high prices, I make out - if no turkey, the wife insists on a rack of prime rib.....I doubt a turkey will top $360.

Do yourself a favor,
Skip the turkey and prepare a nice standing rib roast on a big green egg.
