For Turkey Growers
USDA Organic • Zero Withdrawal
Your turkeys grow for months, not weeks. Every week matters.
Longer grow-outs mean more time for things to go wrong — and more time for the right tools to compound results.
Allen knows turkey production — call and talk specifics
Turkey production is a longer bet.
14 to 20 weeks of grow-out. Every problem has more time to compound — and more money riding on the outcome.
The longer timeline
Broiler growers have 6 weeks to get it right. You have 14-20. That means more exposure to heat, disease, and ammonia — with a bigger per-bird investment on the line.
The compounding worry
Week 4 looks fine. Week 8 looks fine. But by week 12 you're watching the numbers and wondering if this flock is going to finish where it needs to — or fall short.
What's not right about it
You're putting in the work and the hours. A grower who manages birds for 4-5 months at a time deserves tools that match the scale of that commitment.
Same products. Turkey-specific guidance.
Allen Reynolds works with turkey growers the same way he works with broiler growers — by understanding your specific operation, your integrator's expectations, and what's actually happening in your houses.
The products are the same ones commercial broiler growers use. The difference is the dosing schedule and timing. Turkey grow-outs have different critical windows, and Allen will help you build a program that matches your cycle.
Since 2014, he's traveled thousands of miles visiting poultry farms, troubleshooting problems, and helping growers find solutions that hold up in the house. See how all our poultry solutions work together.

Three jobs. Real solutions.
Every product here exists to do one of three jobs in your turkey houses. Pick the job you need help with — we'll show you the right tools.
Keep poults alive and standing through week 16.
Turkey poults are fragile — and the ones that survive still need to carry 40+ lbs on two legs. Bad gut health in week 2 becomes leg problems in week 14. Every week of poor conversion compounds.
Best for: Early mortality, inconsistent conversion, or leg issues in finishing
Keep litter working for 16 weeks, not 6.
Broiler litter gets 42 days of abuse. Turkey litter gets 4 months. By week 10, ammonia is compounding, paw quality is dropping, and beetle pressure is out of control — all while birds are at their heaviest.
Best for: Ammonia buildup, paw downgrades, reused litter, or beetle pressure late in grow-out
Hit target weight before Thanksgiving — no second chance.
Turkey flocks run into holidays. A summer heat event in week 8 or a vaccine reaction in week 12 doesn't just cost you a few points — it can mean missing your window entirely. There's no next flock to make it up.
Best for: Summer heat stress, vaccine weeks, or finishing-phase weight targets

Numbers, not promises.
These results are from commercial poultry operations — including turkey growers — running these same products.
Three steps. Not a sales pitch.
We don't ask you to overhaul your operation. We ask you to test one thing on one house.
Call Allen and tell him about your turkey operation.
How many houses, what integrator, how long your grow-out runs, what's giving you trouble. He'll listen first and build a program around your cycle.
Test on one house, one flock.
No commitment beyond that. No contract, no minimum order. If it doesn't work, don't pay.
See the settlement check.
That's the only proof that matters. If the numbers move, you'll know it. If they don't, we'll shake hands and part ways.
We know what you're thinking.
Turkey growers ask different questions. Here are the straight answers.
These products say 'poultry' — do they actually work on turkeys?
Yes. Big Ole Bird, Litter Life, Catalyst, and Desecticide are formulated for all commercial poultry, not just chickens. The gut biology, litter chemistry, and stress physiology are the same across species. Turkey growers have been using these products for years — the UGA study was conducted on broilers, but the mechanisms apply directly to turkey production.
Turkey grow-outs are longer. Do I need to dose differently?
Dosing schedules may differ slightly for turkeys because of the longer grow-out cycle. Allen can walk you through the recommended protocol for your operation — how many houses, what stage of production, what problems you're seeing. Call and we'll build a program that fits your cycle, not a one-size-fits-all sheet.
My integrator might not approve this.
Everything we sell is USDA Organic certified with zero withdrawal period and zero residue. There's nothing in our products that would cause a compliance issue at the plant. Turkey growers under major integrators use Big Ole Bird and Litter Life every flock. We're happy to provide documentation for your field tech.
I can't afford to experiment on a 16-week grow-out.
We understand — the stakes are higher with turkeys because the grow-out is longer and the per-bird investment is bigger. That's exactly why we say: test on one house, one flock. Big Ole Bird costs pennies per bird. If it doesn't move your numbers, don't reorder. The math works or it doesn't.
How is this different from what I'm already doing?
Most turkey growers are running some kind of vitamin or acidifier program. The difference is targeted probiotics — not generic supplements. Big Ole Bird was developed specifically for poultry gut biology and validated in peer-reviewed research. If your current program is working, keep it. If your numbers have plateaued, one product on one house will tell you whether this is the missing piece.
Your turkeys don't wait. Neither do we.
One conversation about your turkey operation. Allen's on the other end of this number.
Call Allen — he'll answer.
