My Thanksgiving turkey will come from either Whole Foods or Vitamin Cottage, since I want a bird with a fine pedigree, including being free of growth stimulants and hormones, and those are the two stores within my reach in Boulder. Each store offers a variety of birds, and here are their prices, Whole Foods' being taken from their website, and Vitamin Cottage's from the flyer in the Boulder store. All are uncooked birds (Whole Foods has some precooked offerings as well).
Vitamin Cottage (as previously reported):
They are all deep chilled, free range, antibiotic free, no hormones, and a $5 deposit is required.
Mary's fresh free-range deep chilled 10-24 lb turkeys, $2.29 a pound.
Shelton's fresh free-range deep chilled 10-24 lb turkeys, $3.29 a pound.
Mary's organic fresh free-range deep chilled 10-24 lb turkeys, $3.39 a pound.
Mary's heritage fresh free-range deep chilled 7-20 lb turkeys, $5.99 a pound.
Whole Foods:
Petite whole turkey 6-10 lb turkeys, $2.99 a pound
