Hi, I have 8 turkey hens that started laying this spring. They are almost a yr old. Im in FL and its warm now.
There were three toms with them but I removed one since he is becoming aggressive toward us and fighting the other two calm males.
So there are two males w the hens and I have seen them both mating them. I checked the cracked eggs on both sides for fertility and found nothing.
They have been laying for three weeks but the males have been mating them for the last few mos.
Any ideas on what the problem is?
The hens dont seem stressedand gheir feathers look good.I dont *think* they are being over mated.
They get good feed etc plus veggies, greens etc for treats. I offer calcium free choice and they are eating it. The egg shells are hard like they should be.
