Farmers Use CDs to Help Relax Turkeys
The Associated Press
Christmas can be stressful, especially if you're a turkey. But relaxed birds are better, so the National Farmer's Union has come up with a soothing plan. Officials said Monday the organization has sent 114 farmers a compact disk of sounds including birds twittering in the early morning, wind chimes, whale sounds and the gobble of "happy turkeys," to play to their birds.
"It is well known that a stressed bird is more prone to disease," said a spokesman.
