How often do turkeys lay eggs & what to do with the eggs?

Hey there again! So how often will my new turkeys lay? Just got them yesterday. And someone told me before that turkey eggs do not scramble well. Is that true? I did get 1 egg yesterday, nothing today. It is so big and pretty, still have it on the counter, don't wanta crack it till I know what I am gonna do with it!

I have a broad breasted white that I kept on a whim because it escaped the poultry house😵‍💫. She is now 18 months old. She is giving me 4 to 6 eggs a week since mid March ( I'm in central VA.) In my opinion the turkey egg has a milder taste than a chicken egg and the yolks are delicious. As far as scrambling them, they do well, you just have to beat them longer. The yolks are very sturdy!
 
normally turkeys will lay eggs for a couple of weeks. they usually will not lay year round like chickens do.
my wife tried making an angel food cake with turkey eggs. also with goose eggs. it did not go well.
to lighten scrambled eggs, add water or milk to them while whipping..
