we have a trio of breeding Chocolate turkeys that we bought 2 weeks ago - 1 tom and 2 hens. One of the hens(2 yrs old?) started laying eggs one week ago. The other hen(3yrs old?)) chased her off the nest this morning as she was laying an egg and laid her own egg!
Should I separate them and give them each their own nest? Will they fight over the nest? Our plan is to let them hatch out on their own, providing they go broody of course. Eggs should be fertile as tom has been most affectionate with both.
