Hello we just got two turkey hens one is A adult the other about 2-3 months old. How long should I keep them penned up before I can let them out into yard with my chickens without worrying about them taking off? I've been feeding them lots of treats but the young one doesn't want anything to do with me yet the Adult eats grapes out of my hand. I live In the city don't want to loose them.
