    Turkeys with Chickens?

    From my experience with chicks and turkey poults has just been the feed, turkeys especially the board breasted ones need the higher protein. The only other thing is to make sure that they have sure footing in the brooder. I use hardware clothe cover with pine shavings to keep them from sliding...

  11. Simple brooder made from a Rubbermaid Roughneck Tub. Hardware clothe on frame helps in keeping the chicks clean, just add pine shavings to it and go. This is kept behind my office chair so I can turn around and check on chicks anytime.

    I have a Found Turkey

    Looks like a Bronze turkey about 3 weeks old. Give some higher protein feed like turkey starter that has 30% protein. It should not be aggressive to younger birds I would watch out for older birds around it.

    Turkeys with Chickens?

    You have to keep the turkeys on a higher protein feed than the chickens until they are 12 weeks old. Other than that just watch out for blackhead which the turkeys can get from the chickens, it's not harmful to the chickens but it will kill a turkey if not treated. There is a good thread on here...
