I can't stand it! Just found this and I'm already 150 posts behind? Does anyone know when we should set Turkey eggs?

I might be finished hatching by then as it's getting really warm here already. But just in case the weather holds or I really need to do one more batch.....

If nothing else maybe I can get the extra bator set up to do the hatch at work by then; that will be fun; I work with people with developmental disabilities and have been planning to do a hatch with them for awhile. So I might be running two hatches; will have to wait and see how things pan out.

I've been hatching BCM but having a lot of clears from one pen and dead in shells from both. ;-( not positive what's the issue; am rechecking everything but nothing is coming up really wrong.

The English Orp girl might be laying by then or I might still be hatching buff rocks. Again, will have to wait and see.
