So far I have 4 turkey poults hatched out from eggs out of my Black Spanish hen and a Standard Bronze tom. I have 2 light colored one and 2 black ones. I have 17 more eggs to
go and hoping for a good hatch.


 
Our black hen (from a blue slate mother and father) is setting on 18 eggs, they should be hatching out next week if all goes well. Her sister was setting some eggs as well but a fox killed her so I am hoping some of her eggs which are under her sister will hatch. She is such a good mother, only leaving the nest to eat. More broody than any of my chickens.
