A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

It has been raining a ton here too. Gotta put straw down in pens. This guy was feeling himself today. He's nearly 5 months old.

It has been raining a ton here too.

Had a bit of rain almost 3 inches in a short time with hail . There should not be any water in sight
Wettest spring I have had here in a very long time and I decided to not use my incubators. But did have my 1st batch set hatch 18 out of the first 24 eggs set. Wasn't expecting this hatch to be that great as it was the 3 to sometimes 4 hens in mass nest in shed. Should get better now starting with next hatch date of Saturday and should be steady from then on. Sold all 18 to same person they were 1st on list for 12 but when he got here and seen them, he took the whole hatch of 18. Had to get the last 3 hatched out from under momma's never even made it to brooder. That's the way I like it all 24 hours old or less and no feed used. Hopefully I can fill my whole list that easily would be great. A little slow start though this spring without using plug in incubators but on my way now.

It has been a rainy spring here too. It has rained everyday for the past few days, and rain is forecasted everyday for the next week.

Glad your hatch went so well and your poults got a new home! 😊
