Hello, I’m new to this forum and am looking for some advice regarding my newly hatching Sweetgrass Heritage Turkeys. My hen has been doing a great job nesting for the past 4 weeks and I have 8 chicks that have hatched out today. There are still about 7 or 8 eggs under the hen and my concern is that she won’t get up to show the babies where to eat and drink. This evening I dipped all their beaks in water and they drank but I’m wondering how long they can go with out food before I need to intervene?
