Are you using a phone/iPad, or computer to come to BYC?I will take some pictures. I am a little behind on how to put them on internet. (born 9 months before WW2) My grandma raised layers and my uncle raised fryers 90000 at a time I was not even in school yet wnen I learned to care for chickens in Arkansas.
wild turkey hens sometimes share parenting babies, and two hens can be seen taking care of a mixed clutch of poults.I have 4 turkeys setting on the same nest. I can see a gang of eggs under them.
I am wondering when they hatch who will be the mom and raise them? maybe they will draw straws?
I have been raising Turkeys, chickens, ducks, pheasants for 65 years and have never seen this before.
there are plenty of nesting, but they all want this one.
