Large Fowl only crazy egg chain

[jettgirl24]

I'm seriously considering the turkey eggs too but when I asked if we could have turkeys my boyfriends exact words were "NO!". LOL

I think he's finally trying to put his foot down about my poultry craziness... We'll see how successful that is for him

That's me too! He says well how many more are you planning on getting? Don't you have enough already? All that garbage. But I don't tell him bout all my birds only the ones he notices.

So the blue slates and royal palms are penned together? What do the offspring look like?
I have ZERO experience with turkeys, but . . . I might need these lol.

I bet they have two legs and two wings and look like turkeys?

Sorry, I don't know DH says no turkeys.

I don't have any luck with turkeys either. I couldn't even get eggs from my own birds to hatch this year

I think I got 1 egg out of 12 or 14 to hatch.

Don't bigger eggs need a lot of humidity to hatch? I heard you need to spray the eggs with water . I did manage to hatch a duck once:-D

I'd take the turkey eggs but it's just way to hot to ship any eggs. They arrive pre-boiled I beleive

 

[CapricornFarm]

The way the post office does things, they arrive as day old poults!

They lost another one of my packages, didn't put my code in the computer! Shipped the eggs the 21st to a nearby state

I guess I miss wrote that..

The turkeys are in pens by them selves.. They are not penned together.
I have been shipping and recieving eggs for years in triple digits temps
and dont seem to make a difference. I keep my temp and humidity the same
for chickens as well turkeys, now I do raise it and spray my duck eggs.
