I do it once they are feathered out...4 - 6 weeks old depending on breed....but I think the bag says 8 weeks....soooo any time you want, I guess. LOL

Once the bag is gone.

Once the bag is gone.

That turkey looks like a happy mama.

Are they red sexlinks and Barred Rocks?

My husband was falling for the Brown Leghorn chicks at our TSC. I'm the one who nixed that, since they're straight run, and with my luck we'd get a 9:1 roo to pullet ratio.
