Question by Tamaki: Can Chickens and Turkeys eat the same feed?
I have mainly chickens and I’m hatching 10 chickens and 2 turkeys. Do you think they’ll be fine if the turkeys eat chicken feed? Thank you!

What do you think? Answer below!

Yes they can. But DO NOT KEEP THEM IN THE SAME PEN. try to keep them at least 50 feet away from each other. the chickens poop will actually cause the turkeys to develop a mild case of Blackhead i think is what its called

I had turkeys with my chickens and they were free range eating the same chicken layer pellets. I only raised them from poults for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners.
