Timing of breeding and egg laying

[entropy]

How long after breeding will a turkey hen lay eggs from the same tom? I have a flock of both royal palms and blue slates that free range and I wanted to seperate them for breeding. However, they have already started breeding with each other and I wanted to try and hatch the pure breeds.
Thanks,

Separate them now if you want pure chicks. I always wait 4 weeks after changing toms before I trust that the eggs are fertilized by the tom I want to use.
