I'm on day 26 with my Turkey egg, incubating it myself because my uncle gave it to me as it's mum didn't want it. I candled it yesterday(day25) without moving it and saw a lot of movement, I let it sit expecting it to pip by today at least internally but it didn't. No peeping too, just an awful lot of movement and no internal pipping.

I popped it into the incubator with 0 information about what to expect and how differently develop. All I knew was that their incubation was 28 days, the same amount as ducks.

Any advice? Or probably info to share about what's happening?

How did it go?
 
How did it go?
sadly, it died in the shell. when I opened it after 3 days it had already internally pipped but seemed to have died of carbon dioxide poisoning. midway of the incubation I came across a video that preached assisted hatching (aka safetly hole) but I wanted the egg to hatch as naturally as it could and regretted that decision in the end lol

I'm sorry, it always sucks when that happens.
I don't know much about turkeys, but wanted to ask how it when.
