Are these Eggs Turkey Eggs?!?!?! In Winter!?!?!?

[Taylor]

I found these 1 egg yesterday in the regular laying boxes and the other one today in the same nest my chickens use, its 1ftx1ft. I have heard turkeys do not lay in the winter, but these surely look like turkey eggs to me! they have a light in the coop, so it may be helping them. They are fed 21% layer pellep and scratch grains. If it helps they are Heritage bronze Turkeys

The 2 eggs next to a large chicken egg

Yes, those are turkey eggs. Sometimes they will lay a few in the winter.

I'm getting three to four eggs a week from my White Midgets. Not enough to bother hatching, but a few.

Yes they are. My turkeys lay in winter also.
