Chicken raising turkey

[marytoast]

If I put a turkey poult in with my broody's chicks when they hatch, would she raise it? Is it a good idea? Thanks

She might if she can be fooled into thinking it is hers, but if you have the poult already and she hasnt hatched yet I would have to say no.

I have broodies raising poults that they have hatched with no problems, so its a matter of whether she will identify the poult as an outsider.
