i need to break these turkeys since they are sitting on infertile goose eggs and have nothing to sit on, ive tried just removing their nest but then they go into the chicken coop to set in tiny nest boxes. i can try locking them in the chicken hutch with no nest for a few days, i can fill their nest with ice, what aould be the best way to break two die heart broody turkeys?
 
ive dealt with this - just last month actually. we took the eggs from her & then messed up her nest. After she went & laid down again, i took the hose & shot her with it lol. Didnt hurt her, just like a super thunderstorm. She got up after that & never went back. Although, ive always been told to take them & seclude them for a few days. Good luck with it !! Its definately kind of fun..
