**~~>>Second Annual Cinco de Mayo Turkey Hatchathon<<~~**all poultry welcome!

I'll join. was planning to set turkey eggs after my chicks for the Easter hatch-a-long were all out anyway, so I can wait a few days to set with everyone else :) I am tentatively planning to set 10 mixed heritage breed eggs, but I'll update that once I pick up my eggs and actually get them into the 'bator.
 
Well I did discover where Lil Lurkey has her "hiding place". Actually pretty close to where her mom used to hide her eggs. Unfortunately, I found it a little too late because the egg was cracked from being frozen. At least now I know where to look. Edith seems to prefer the coop. Now they really need to pick up the pace and lay every day!
 
I only have one laying right now (I think) and I'm getting an egg every other day. She makes a giant nest in the shavings in the coop by the nesting boxes. At least it's easy to find and clean. Now if only she'd learn immaculate conception.
 
Now that would be awesome!

Hopefully you will get a jake this year.

I had a chicken hatch earlier this year that netted 75% boys. I'm never 50-50. I guess it works out to 50-50 in the end but my hatches are either mostly girls or mostly boys.

Maybe this is the year of the jake.
