My neighbor tried to raise some turkeys for Christmas. Those were bred to grow really quickly but his timing was off. They have to be slaughtered within a small window before they get too fat and their hearts give out. He had to do an early Christmas.

That's a pretty miserable existence for turkeys

[–] WanderingThoughts@europe.pub 39 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's pretty common for animals in the meat industry. A broiler chicken goes from hatching to supermarket in 6 weeks. That's what's being called efficiency these days.

[–] vaionko@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 week ago

I worked at a broiler farm one summer. 35 days is the time from when they arrive to when they leave to get slaughtered.

A lot of people live this way too. They just keep working and getting fatter until they die of a heart attack at 60

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 7 points 1 week ago

Lmfao fair point

[–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 7 points 1 week ago

You're supposed to change their feed when they get to the desired size.

[–] ranzispa@mander.xyz 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Don't know about the small window thing. We had turkeys for a while, but to be fair it was more about domestic animals than food source. Those things would get huge. I remember once some friends were coming to visit at night and seeing them on the roof got scared and ran off.

Mmm.... Turkish delight... 🤤

Fun fact : The wolf either references Turkish fascism or ancient furry porn OR the other, less popular ancient furry porn.

If don't want to be eaten, why delicious?

[–] a14o@feddit.org 10 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

Yo! Grey wolves = fascist, don't repost that shit

[–] JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca 32 points 1 week ago (14 children)

Wtf are you on about? They don't get to decide what symbols belong to them. Ok 👌? 🐸 Fuck Nazi's appropriating culture for themselves. Iirc the style of this comment indicates their membership in THE PACK AAYROOOO

Are not grey wolves a cultural symbol related to an old turkish tale? Does not look facist to me.

I'm not letting some obscure group of fucking Turks claim a goddamn emoji as their own and stop using it myself. Same with Pepe, a 🐸 emoji, or 👌. They already have the swastika and a bunch of others from the ACTUAL Nazis, let them use those instead.

You‘re getting downvoted but I agree with you. The joke in the image is funny, but the presence of these grey wolve emojis suggests affiliation with the Grey Wolves which are fascist. No debating that, I don’t get the other comments here.

[–] hayvan@feddit.nl 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No they are not right. I can't know the political views of someone in some shitpost, but the original grey wolf symbolim comes from Turkic mythology, which is today being co-opted by racist fucks. It still gets used ironically to make fun of those fucks (just like posting Musk's Nazi salute doesn't automatically make you a nazi if you are making fun of him).

In addition, some people want to reclaim the symbolism, because it's ancient mythology, why would we leave it to them, right?

My girlfriend is sometimes a turkey and she loves to be eaten. She asks to be eaten. Sometimes, when she's really in need, she begs for me you eat her. I have no idea what the original post was talking about

I'm sure there's a turkey furry out there with a vore fetish.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

If they don't want to be eaten all they have to do is say it.

[–] AnimalsDream@slrpnk.net 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They do, in their own way.

[–] Jerkface@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

All mine said was "gobble gobble," I'm getting mixed messages here.

If Turkeys dont want to be eaten, why are they made out of food?
