What kinda colors do you have as far as turkeys go?
Sent you a PMMottled black, royal palm, red bronze, bronze, and Bourbon red.
Is there a certain time of year for moulting? Some of my girls are looking rough
How much luck have you all had with trying to slip day old chicks under a broody? My Buff Orp. has been sitting on fertile eggs for about 8 days, I candled last night and was sad to see none look like they have veining, the past 4 days or so she has been doing great, but the first few days she was kicking some eggs out, or returning to the wrong eggs during the day when she got off to drink. I found cold eggs a few times those first couple days. I am trying to decide whether to give her a new set (after a few days when I am positive they aren't incubating) or slip a few chicks under her.
I'm surprised you are candling a broody hen's eggs. That can disturb her, and break her. Or make her brood somewhere else.
If she has no success by day 23, you can give her day-olds at night. Before day 18ish is very risky.
So I made a mistake and ended up with one black Sumatra pullet mixed in with about 20 standards. Didnt realize shes a Bantam till now. Will she be okay? Hopefully I'll have some Bantam babies soon but itll be at least a week and a half I think.
