Sooo, we already had 9 hens in a huge coop+run and finally took the plunge and added three 3-month old turkeys. How much harder/louder/more obtrusive could they be, right? Yikes, VERY! We took in two girls and a boy, all a Narragansett/midget white cross. Cute as all getout, but they follow within a foot of each other and call and respond constantly for 24/7. No breaks. They actually have a beautiful sound, but they are driving our elderly neighbors and the area dogs crazy.

I'm wondering if this is a turkey thing, a new home thing, or both. Has anyone tried a no-call collar on turkeys? I have found nothing about it on the internet. Thanks for any input!
 
That is normal, they will stop when they feel comfortable, could be a while, unhappy turkeys are loud, they are calling those that they left, they are thinking they are lost and are trying to get back home, turkeys can be persistent. Good luck.
