To anyone wondering what it looks like in one of the poultry barns involved in all of this here are some pictures from when I went and got a truck full of birds today. It was one of the hardest situations I’ve had to witness and was probably even harder for me as someone who raises and has grown up around poultry so I can’t imagine what it’s like for the farmers who this ordeal is happening to. The birds still had heat and water but the only feed available is the feed put out by people trying to catch birds. Many of the birds had resorted to cannibalism to get nutrients so they could survive. The barn I went to was around 1/4 full so I’m hopeful all of the living healthy birds will be taken before they die or are euthanized because of animal welfare concerns.

It is despicable how Pure Prairie Poultry and the state of Wisconsin have failed these farmers, letting this situation get to this level. As an alumni of UWRF, it is sad that the University has decided not to do anything to help considering animal science is there largest major and they are the closest of Wisconsin’s 3 agriculture schools. It’s is also sad how underreported this has been, if it were any other livestock species it’s front page news nationwide. If 1 trillionth or less of the money being spent on political campaigns in WI was used to help this the birds could have been fed until their endpoints, avoiding this entire disaster.

Broiler Update 10/14/24 AM: at LEAST 23,000+ birds left

These birds still need to get out, NOW. Birds are about 6lbs each and ready to butcher. Some have been off of feed for a few days now. $1/bird at the sites, more if you are paying for transport from individuals. You can comment on transport routes or birds you can take here.

W166 Highway 10, Mondovi Wisconsin 54755 - 1500-2000 birds left. Open 9am today until 6:30 pm/dark, hoping to get the rest of the birds out

Greg Marten’s Barn: W284 County Road HH Mondovi, 15,000+, 9 am - dark

N47656 CTH-Y, Eleva WI, open during daylight. 7,000, daylight hours

W21462 Holcomb Coulee Road, Galesville, WI 54630 -- Have not heard anything as far as times open or birds remaining.

Some tips for getting birds:
-You do not need to contact the farmers or myself before going. Just show up within the times. At least one of these sites will still have birds, especially if you are going in the Mondovi direction. Even if you are driving from far away. They will have birds.
-These are meat birds. They are ready to butcher. They will not lay many (if any) eggs or make good pets. The ethics of broilers or industrial poultry is not up for debate here, the goal is just to get these birds out here and now.
-Bring masks and headlights - it is very dusty in the barns, and the farmers dim the lights to keep the birds calm.
-If you are feeding them, wet the feed so they can eat it easier as most have been without feed for a while.
-PLEASE be respectful of the farmers, birds, and equipment. This is their livelihood. These birds are still alive.
-I have classes and work today, so I will not be able to update routes or reply to comments/messages often. Please help each other out and answer questions in the comments and keep the comments on track. I'll post a list of people that are traveling around noon.
-THANK YOU to everyone who has helped to get the word out, shared these posts, and gone to get birds. You are making a difference and are so, so greatly appreciated!!

Warning long post

This is our Hardwood son we purchased from Nation Showpigs at STC in June. The plan was for him just to show at WI state fair but after less than desirable results down there we decided to enter him at Minnesota State Fair. He was named champion AOB even though he wasn’t in best show conditions due to traffic.

This boar is one that was intriguing in his pictures on Facebook in June prior to STC and when we saw him in Springfield we knew we needed to try to get him to NW WI even though we didn’t need another tam boar. The pieces he has are special for any breed but a tam especially and are reminiscent of some of the special tam boars from the past decade.

His name is still TBD (thinking something basketball related) but the plan is to have semen available for spring breeding season at the latest.

This litter has been almost 2 years in the making, they are sired by the Bope donation boar at the 2022 Herf and Tam Nationals. The dam is a Baddass x Ring of Fire sow from Linneman farms who had littermates work all over the country. She had a re**al prolapse midway through her gestational period and these 3 gilts are the survivors that survived all that stress.
