Oh I believe you!

I have a question. When I go to remove her "kids" should I remove one, one night and then the other the following night? Or remove them both in the same night?

 

[amillecay]

Well i did a bit of looking around on google and found that if you just take one it will scream and everything and wont do well because it's on it's own. A few places said Catch the hen first and take her out of sight, then scoop up the babies. Ya know I think you might just have to put up with her crying about it for a little while, I don't know what else you could do.

Well i have no problem wit that. I am still debating on doing this this weekend or the weekend after.

 

[amillecay]

That's good, well when ever you have them time I would go ahead and do it

 

[brahmabreeder]

I have decided i will do it when they are two weeks old

 

[amillecay]

I think that's a good decision I really can't hurt any plans all that much and momma will be happier.

Do you have any experience with turkeys hatching eggs?

 

[amillecay]

I had a friend who had one that hatched about nine and I was around helping out with her a lot but otherwise no I haven't.

I was just wondering if there was any chance she would go broody again.
