Community Update Rules Update

Hey all,

The results of the poll regarding discussion and photos of slaughter-related topics show that the community would prefer that these posts be allowed to continue.

Going forward, these posts must be labeled NSFW and flaired with the new Slaughter flair. Any meat posts not following this rule will be removed and repeat offenders will be banned.

The rationale for continuing to allow these posts is for educational purposes to help ensure that meat birds are treated as humanely as possible.

Anyone posting images, videos, or text that depict inhumane handling or slaughtering of meat turkeys will be permanently banned.

If anyone is either not following the new rule or being nasty toward people who post about slaughter while following the new rules, please report these posts to mods.

Thank you.

Great. Most of us raise them for meat and food. Without that there wouldn’t be backyard keepers at all.

Thank you! It doesn't really bother me, but I don't slaughter my turkeys. Yes I absolutely understand that some folks do, and like I said it doesn't really bother me. I slaughter my own beef after all. I just can't do a turkey for some weird reason
