Is ok to have a lone turkey?

[Quailer21]

My lone turkey will be hatching april 18 and I am scared that he won't be healthy because he has no other turkeys to be around. Any suggestions?

I think its a 50 50 chance there. As im sure you know many times chicks, ducklings, and poults struggle without sibblings and many times dont survive. The importance of sibblins is how much they learn from each other. Also the social aspect of it. If you hatch it and stay very devoted to it giving it lots of attention and making sure it knows how to eat and drink you will definatly increase its chance of surving.

There will be 2 older chicks in the brooder at about 3 weeks old. Will that help?
