Do you hear your turkeys peep like chicks in eggs?

[favoritekitty]

I have one more day for two incubated turkey eggs and I cant stop looking at them! I was wondering if turkey chicks will peep in their eggs as often as chicks do? Im looking for some kind of sign that they are in there

Rolling, peeping, swearing, anything?

Steve, that answer is NOT acceptable!

Wait??

Longer??

I am on Day 27 of 2 from my birds! Yeah it is hard to wait but once you see those adorable babies with their HUGE eyes, you will forget all about the wait!

I think Im just really nervous because these two were under a bantam brahma until 2 days ago. She got off of them (for maybe no more than a few hours) and they were pretty darn cold when I found them. Thankfully, I had the incubator still going from our chicks hatching a couple of days before so I was able to stick them in there. I kept them in my room for a bit to get to room temp and then put them in the incubator. I hope they made it. This is nerve wracking!

And STEVE wants me to wait?!

LOL, I'm on day 18 of chicken eggs and favoritekitty, I understand how you would love to crack open a shell just to see whats inside- just like a Christmas present!
I've got turkey eggs next and that is another whole week added on- not sure I can deal with it!

Good luck and I can't wait to hear whats in your "present"!!!

I'm on day 20 with some of Steve's eggs so I feel your pain. This is agonizing.

Why, of course! You told me that was the magic ingredient to make them come out of their shells!
