The 5th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

Is it ok if i set my turkeys today? they got here yesterday and I don't want to leave them out much longer since they are shipped eggs already.

Yes, Turkey's are to be set the 22nd so you are within +/- 2 days for them to count in the totals.

Good luck! What type are you setting?

That sounds like a good mix of turkeys!

I hope you have a great hatch.

I wish my turkeys would start laying eggs.

Well, I have just locked down my very first batch of eggs in the incubator.

Out of 30 set have 16 left, the rest were all definitely clear so I finally took them out. I know there is at least 1 egg with a chick, this is a light tan egg, the rest are green and blue. Hopefully they all have chicks, but we shall see. Now just to keep an eye on the temp and humidity.
