Turkeys Suffer From Blizzard in Berkeley and Winchester Areas
A severe winter storm caused heavy losses to turkey flocks in Berkeley County West Virginia and surrounding areas. Roy Benner Sr. lost 400 birds at his farm, insurance covering part of $4,200 in damages. In Frederick County near Winchester, about 125 birds were lost from William J. Lockhart’s flock of 9,000, while Melvin L. Seldon of Winchester Milling Corp said losses on contracted stock were minor due to shelter efforts and smudge pot burning. Smaller white turkeys fared worse than bronze, and feed contracts help farmers recover costs during disasters.
