New turkey Hatched

[MamaHutch06]

one of my turkey eggs just hatched and the chickens carried it out...Dont know if it hatched on its own or if the chickens broke the egg. It was due to hatch anytime from thursday til tuesday so we arent sure if its early. The sac is attached to the turkey but the turkey is breathing. Is thjis normal?

I just had some poults hatch (my first ever, so not that experienced). They didn't have any yolk attached to them. They are fluffy, normal chicks. Is it possible the poult was squished out of the egg? As in, one of the chickens tried to get into the nest and the egg was stepped on? Anyway, my broodies do their business in the coop, but in cages to prevent any nest hogs or noses nellies from climbing in with them. If you have a brooder you could set up, I'd take the baby, put it in there and hope for the best. Good luck!
