I am new to turkeys. Last spring I received 5 royal palm turkeys as poults. 4 turned out to be toms and 1 hen. my hen "sweet pea" started laying her first eggs on valentines day this year. She has laid 9 eggs so far and two days ago laid 2 eggs in one sitting! I have never heard of a chicken or turkey lay 2 in one day. she does not seem to be broody yet but I am hoping soon. I seperated her from all but 1 nice tom. hope they mate and she gets broody! Has anyone heard of a hen laying like that?
