Help please! I just acquired 2 Turkey chicks. Google identified them as royal palm turkeys.
We have chickens and muscovy ducks. But I know nothing about Turkeys.
These 2 have no feathers on their heads yet, and are about double the size of my 5 week old chicks.
Is there anything i need to know or do different from my chickens?

Pictures please.
 
First, make sure you feed them game bird or turkey starter feed; it has the higher protein levels that poults need (28% or higher). And second, just because they're bigger than chicks doesn't mean they need less warmth. Make sure they have access to a warm area and cool area in their brooder.
