B Correct answer
Explanation

When 'poultry' refers to birds (chickens, ducks, etc.), it is a plural noun and requires a plural verb. 'These poultry are mine' is grammatically correct. The singular 'is' would only work if 'poultry' referred to meat as a food category, but the context here refers to the birds themselves.
