Hi New here and I am a new turkeys momma

Turkeys are difficult: They are way more delicate than chickens. When they hatch, I move them to a brooder with a 95 degree temp. Every week, I lower the temperature by 5 degrees. When they get to 80 - 85, I keep them there. When their feathers are in, they can walk, eat, and drink, I move them to the outdoor brooder with the light. After about a month (or two), I take the light away.

I raise them on turkey food and medicated, to boost their immune system. Good luck!
