We are very proud and confident of the birds we offer. We not only sell these birds but we also grow them here on our farm. We work very hard to make sure the chicks and poults are delivered as fast as possible in the most humane manner to ensure minimal stress on the birds.
Our finished poultry products are all natural. This means that our birds are raised in a cage free environment and allowed to go out side when old enough. They are fed only feed that does not contain any animal by-products, hormones, steroids, antibiotics or growth stimulants. We slaughter and process our own birds in our fully equipped state licensed plant. Thus allowing us to retain complete quality control of the processing. Our poultry products are ready for sale in less than 24 hrs of being slaughtered.
Greaney's Turkey Farm offers these quality products:
- Broiler chicks for the back grower as will as the small commercial producer. We only buy our stock from NPIP certified hatcheries. Our strain of broilers are some of the industries fastest growing feed efficient broilers. This strain easily obtains dressed weights of 5 pounds in 45 to 50 days.
- Turkey poults (baby turkeys for you city folk). As with the broilers we are small enough to sell to back yard grower and large enough to meet the needs of small commercial producers. The poults also come from only NPIP certified hatcheries. We offer only large strain broad breasted turkeys. This strain is the same type of bird that is grown on large commercial farms because of its superior feed efficiency, strong legs, and excellent carcass quality. These turkeys consistently obtain dressed weights of 14 to 21 pound in 90 to 100 days and 25 to 35 pounds in just 19 weeks!
- Started turkeys are also available. We will start your poults up to the age of three weeks. This service is for the grower that does not want the hassle of starting his or her own birds. Usually all the grower has to do when the birds are picked up is feed and water them. We charge by the bird per day. Please contact us about availability.
- Fresh/frozen broilers, fryers, cornish hens on a custom growing basis. All of our birds are All Natural. The birds are grown in a cage free environment on clean dry shavings with lots of room. They are fed only the freshest feed that does not contain any animal by-products, growth stimulants, antibiotics or hormones. We also do not use any preservatives during the slaughter or processing of our birds.
- Fresh ALL NATURAL Thanksgiving Turkeys range in size from 12 to 30 pounds. These turkeys are fed a diet of grain that does not contain animal by-products steroids, antibiotics, or growth stimulants. Our turkeys are raised in a cage free environment on clean dry shavings with lots of room. They are allowed outside when they are old enough, but can come and go from the barn as they please.

Greaney's Turkey Farm is the only poultry processing facility in the State of Maine to offer these great custom slaughtering services:
- Humane killing of all poultry. Greaney's Turkey Farm utilizes an electric stun knife procedure to kill all poultry. The stun knife speeds up the heart rate of the poultry allowing the blood to pump out at a faster rate.
- Poultry Chilling. All poultry that is processed is chilled in ice water.
- Pre-Pack Purging. All chickens are hung to drip dry before bagging.
- Parting and Cutting. As part of the packing process you have the choice to cut your birds into quarters or halves prior to packing.
