I need to cut back on birds and the Yokis are going as are the Appletinis'. I just want APA showbirds and less than 50.

I am getting too old for 400-500 birds.

Not much you can do now, so Good luck,,

I know I give people poop for canding to often..

Seriously though on turkey eggs DO NOT candle until day 14. You will throw away good eggs and nothing is accomplished earlier.

Turkeys really,,IMHO need 40% then up to 65% humidity on day 24-25... I never lay them on their side. I hatch them standing up. I do pretty well on turkeys this way...

Good luck. BTW do not touch them and stand them now. Leave thy fingers off thy eggs!!



PS as Aurora says have a chick tutor ready to go, it will save a lot of turkey lives.....


Also you have to know your own area. If I hatched at 30% like Aurora does I would have every chick stuck to the shell. Incubating is a SCIENCE and you need learn from each batch...


The uneducated call it an art....

The two roosters I caught apparently smacked against the top door until it unlatched. Stupid (or smart) birds!!
