I have a bourbon red turkey hen that has been laying. She currently has a clutch of 20 eggs. At night she sits on the eggs, but during the day it seems like that's all she wants to do is go out and party in the yard. It's possible she's sitting on them some during the day, but since I work, I normally can't tell if she's in there or not.
1) is there anything I can do to encourage her to go broody?
2) is sitting on the eggs only over night a normal behavior?
3) will the eggs even still be viable now?
This is my first time trying to get a turkey to hatch her own eggs, so I'm not sure what's "normal" behavior
