Shush... don't type that so loud. We raise ours together with chickens, ducks, geese, guineas and peafowl. We have a 100+ turkey breeders and have never had any problems. So please don't tell them they shouldn't be with the rest of the birds.
Seriously, the chickens can pass blackhead...
I've read on some of the hatchery sites that you should not raise Turkeys and Chickens together because the Turkeys can get some fatal disease (Blackhead or something like that) from chicken poop. If that's so, How far apart do they need to be housed? From one side of the barn to the other or...

Like I said, I don't know much about Turkeys but I agree with you about putting them in it at night. It looks pretty simple to build and I liked the fact that it can be moved easily.
I don't know much about Turkeys except how to cook them but I found this Turkey Skid in an old "how to" book and thought someone here might like the info.
