    New baby turkeys

    Thank you for your replies. Four have hatched. We thought we had them penned safely but unfortunately one founds it’s way out and the Tom killed it. We took the other three and have them under a heat lamp. She has three more eggs under her that haven’t hatched

    Turkeys With Chickens

    I have two 3.5 month old turkeys housed in with my 8 chickens. I think one turkey is a Tom but not sure. The one I think is a Tom keeps chasing my oldest hen and pecking her neck/head and jumping on her back with its feet. Is this normal behavior? Do turkeys kill chickens?

    I Am A New Chicken Mama!!!

    Oh my. The fourth chick we got looks just like your blues. We were supposedly buying Asian blues and black Marlins. Definitely labeled wrong.

    I Am A New Chicken Mama!!!

    I think they look like my barred rock but they are a tad bit different. I often wonder though if they were labeled wrong.
