    Do all Welsummer hens lay that iconic dark chocolate brown egg or is it just some?

    I have acquired some Welsummer hens however the eggs they have been laying vary some are cream coloured with light to heavy speckling to some looking like ISA Brown eggs, they are over a year old and just finished their moult, will the iconic Welsummer eggs come later on or is that young hens only.

    Purebred Welsummer rooster?

    Just a pet, I just find it kind of scam when some breeders sell chickens/fertile eggs at premium prices and label them as 'purebred'.

    Purebred Welsummer rooster?

    Photo is from an advert for purebred Welsummer eggs, colouring and leg colour look a bit off and the rooster looks a bit 'beefier' than a standard Welsummer am I right?

    Are these Welsummer eggs?

    Ebay bought eggs, seller had listed them as purebred Welsummers, however looking at Welsummer eggs they tend to be more darker brown or covered in speckles or a combination of both, they sure don't look like it, have a feeling I got scammed.

    Day old turkey poult panting in brooder that is set at 35 degrees

    Day old turkey poult panting in brooder that is set at 35 degrees

    I believe I found the solution, I took it out briefly while adding some feed and for some reason it was more active outside the brooder on the wooden panel floor in my house, it was chirping and running around with the panting completely gone, as soon as I put it back in the brooder it started...

    Day old turkey poult panting in brooder that is set at 35 degrees

    Digital thermometer that is built into the brooder says so, but I believe it is not accurate. It is a no name brand that is made in China so looks it is not the best brooder.

    Turkey poult pipped egg on day 26, other eggs have not pipped yet is this normal?

    I know turkey poults hatch on day 28 from what I have read, but one of my turkey eggs have begun to hatch already on lockdown, I am worried that once this turkey completely hatches and I take it out of the incubator I risk messing up process and drying out the membrane of the other poults still...

    Is there any truth to this?

    I heard that raising newly hatched turkey poults with a week-old baby chickens is a good idea as the baby chicken will show how to drink water and take food, I have two turkey eggs in the incubator that are due to hatch next week and already have a brooder kit to be set up and I am thinking of...
