Moving turkey nest

[Mazy1561]

I have a turkey who has laid eggs outside and something got them. She has laid more eggs in same spot and want to move them so doesn’t happen again. She was heartbroken after the first time. Couldn’t settle her down afterwards as new nest was there. Trying to save these ones. Has laid 2 eggs so far. Any suggestions??

Welcome to BYC. Is there a pen/coop that she could be confined to ? It sounds as if she is bonded to that site.

Yes and put her and eggs in there with her. Also put male as she just kept making noises but not so much now. She is free range all day and put in pen at night but after finding her eggs destroyed last week didn’t figure on any more. Went to her spot yesterday and today so checked and sure enough 2 more eggs. Trying to keep them safe.

Welcome. Are the eggs fertile, do you have a TOM?
