Good luck! How big of a nest box do turkeys like?

Mine like a 2 footer. This contraption is 4 feet - split many ways for the many preferences. The turkeys fit comfortably in the bottom.

Cap I never had a nest that worked for my Turkey to be able to hatch their own eggs. I tried a tire a tote with a space cut out for them to get in and out. And a hay nest on the floor of the coop. I just incubated my eggs.
I candles the eggs and they developed but they did not do well for what we do for lockdown for some reason. So I always timed it to have a couple chicks hatch with the first batch. Then I would let a juvie Turkey poult raise the next several hatches.
I fou d the 2 week old poults loved teaching the younger poults so much that I used them for many hatches.
