Good plan! They will love the turkeys. I wonder how good turkeys would be at clicker training?I think the kids will have fun playing with them over the summer & make them into great pets.
I do suggest protective eyewear though, when cuddling with turkeys. They are even better at dotting your eye than chickens are.
Yes, that is the key! I have 20 poults ranging from under a week to one month old that I have been trying to sell, and the next batch due to hatch this weekend. It's my last batch for the year. The problem is, you have to decide a month ahead of time when you will be ready to quit hatching. I didn't decide until about two weeks later than I should have!having folks wanting to buy them.
@Indyshent , if your broody hens don't come through for you and you find yourself short on turkeys....
