Question for Turken Owners?

[flgardengirl]

Good to know about the broodiness. I wouldnt mind if she decides to go broody. Mine just started laying a month ago so maybe her eggs will get bigger. I originally had my NN hen in with a polish roo but he mated her relentlessly and was hurting her neck and head too much. He favored her over the polish hens. My English orp guy is a gentleman and much slower than the Polish roo so she can get away if she wants to

I am glad I am hearing positive experiences with them. I wanted to try some new breeds to add to my existing flock this year. I have always thought Turkens were unique looking but wasn't sure about their temperament.

I just hatched 5 baby necked necks this week. My neighbor gave me the eggs. They are so cute. Some even have the little bowtie. My kids call them baby ostrich's.. I can't wait to see them grow out.

I can't wait to get mine . I have never seen an adult or Turken chick in person. I have only seen pictures of them. I didn't even know they could have bowties. They definitely sound like cute chicks.
