Platypus Flats Ranch

Platypus Flats Ranch Platypus Flats Ranch is a family farming venture. We believe in raising our birds and beef in the most natural way possible. The birds average 5 to 7 pounds.

We do not use hormones or artificial supplements. Our birds are allowed free space to roam and pick, within the safety of our beef pasture and yard. They are fed locally ground grain as a supplement. Our beef are pasture fed during the summer, and hay fed during the winter. Our meat chickens are grown to 9 weeks old. They can be purchased alive or processed. We begin raising chickens in April or e

arly May and can take orders until August. Our Turkeys are raised to approximately 24 weeks of age. They range from 12 to 20 pounds. We have white and bronze. They too can be purchased alive or processed. Turkeys are on a first come-first served basis. Because of the time required to raise a turkey, we only grow one batch per year. We use a local organic processing shop to process our birds. We appreciate orders so we can plan how many birds to raise, but do raise extra for unanticipated requests.

This warm snap has provided us with lots of turkey eggs. Putting 57 in the incubator today. Might be too early for a high hatch rate, but we will see.
