I've got what appears to be a broody turkey that has taken in three muscovy eggs and 9 chicken eggs....
Do you guys think it's okay for her to sit on them?? I found the 9 chicken eggs under my coop yesterday and since no hen was sitting on them I moved them to inside the coop.
Since none of the hens moved in to sit on them by tonight, I gave them to the turkey.... I couldn't tell how long the eggs had been under the coop so I figure since the turkey was already sitting on three duck eggs, she might sit on the chicken eggs as well.....
I don't have a bator so I don't have a way to incubate them myself.
What do you think the chances are they'll mature??
