<---- Jealous! I ordered 15 Narragansett back in Dec. and two weeks before they were due to be delivered in April, they called and said "bad lay and hatch rate, your order has been cancelled."

I found someone semi-local to buy turkeys through but ended up with Bourbon Reds. I got 5 of those and 2 Giant White - one GW died this morning.... Make sure they are eating! Several times a day.... they won't 'get it' after eating once. Mine are 3 days old and still haven't figured out that they have to eat more often than just when I hand-feed them.

These are my first turkeys too.

Good luck on your babies!!!
