Welchlin's Turkeys Find Their Way
ToManyHomesO nThanksgivingDay

Turkeys-the largest game bird
native to North America, and really
an American Bird" Many of these
delicious fowls graced the Thanks
giving tables of Americans through
out the land Thursday.
Historians estimate that the first
turkeys were domesticated by the
Aztec Indians for many centuries
before the Spanish even found the
New World,
If the old Aztecs could visit the
turkey farm of Arthur and Leroy
Welchlin, their eyes would pop open
in amazement.
The ArtLee Turkey farm is To-
Gated in Cumberland county about
five miles north Of Farmville few
miles from John Randolph School.
The two brothers have been rails
ing turkeys on this farm for about
II years. Arthur said that he started
with one hen about 80 years ago.
At that time he was living on the
old home place on the river road,
where his brother. Willie, now op-
crates the Locust Hill Farm Hatch
cry.
Arthur and Leroy specialize in
turkeys and leave the chickens to
Willie.
! A Few this Year
We had fewer turkeys this year
than usual" Arthur said, "only
about $500 Two years ago we had
1900 birds" he added quickly.
They didn't intend to raise as
many as they did this gear. but Lee
Roy said that they had the eggs so
they went ahead and Matched them
They also sell turkey eggs and
poults.
/ The 400 acre farm seems to be
I alive with turkeys: some white. some
| bronze, and others Just strutting
and showing off to pass the time
/ OF day. In many ways the turkeys
resemble choir-one hits a few
\ notes and then the rest chime in

Keeping an eye on the flock is a
full-time job. Leroy slept in his
station wagon near the flock all
summer.
Frequently varmints" of various
types try to raid the turkeys and it
helps to be on hand to protect them.
Stray dogs are one of the worst Of
Tenders, and foxes are frequently
trapped. Ore fox who had been a
regular visitor recently was just
trapped last week.
w rking with the brothers on the
large farm is T. E. Jackson and
his family Arthur's son. Robert. is
seven years old and is starting to

Thanksgiving Slaughter
Before the flock is cut by the
Thanksgiving orders, they will con
sumo as much as 10000 pounds of
feed per day With that much feed
going Out every day it is no wonder

simmons but never roam far enough
to miss out on the daily feed that
they receive free
mo need to worry about them
wandering off into the woods. said
Leroy "As long as we feed them
they'll stick around
Leroy recalled last year when a
wild turkey hung around the flock
for a week or 50. The old gobbler
would land in the pen for free
meal and the other turkeys would
run away from him as fast as they
could go.
Wild turkeys often JOIN the flock
for few days, but never for very
long.
A few OF the birds roost in trees.
bat most eff them sleep on the
ground, we used to build roosts
for them. said Arthur. but it got
to be too much trouble They do
just as we'll sleeping on the ground =

In their slaughter and dressing

birds a day. They Kill the turkeys
by cutting the jugular vein. Then
the bird IS dipped into hot water to
loosen the feathers.
The turkeys are picked clean as

that Arthur and Leroy look forward
to Thanksgiving and Christmas
People come to the farm from as
far away as Richmond, Charlottes-
vile. Amherst, Appomattox. etc, to
get the turkeys. Free deliveries are
made in Farmville. They used to
deliver in Richmond also. but the
local demand got too great. so they
stopped the Richmond deliveries
Sales are made to the Farmville
groceries as well as to individuals.
However. most of the turkeys are
sold to the big meat companies like
Rockingham. Swift. etc.
