Do you sell the turkeys, use them for meat, or have them as pets?

Yes! Wait all 3 are options right?
My DD has plans to take some to our county fair and the extera males will be eaten. I have been known to offer exteras for adaptation or for sale with their choice of backyard or freezer as the delivery options. Lol turkeys are so much fun!

E3 is at 42 days. E2 is at 46 and haven’t seen anything yet.

How many days do they usually hatch at?

Day 5 here probably not going to candle until this weekend. Happy as this is the first time Im hatching all white eggs. Maybe Ill actually be able to see something!!

100% guarantee be able to see something on white eggs. Even with a half decent flashlight. I LOVE white eggs for that reason. The only hang up would be porous eggs. They can be tricky regardless of color.

E2 is supposed to show signs of hatching 1/27 to/28. I’m hoping it’s alive and will see a regular, blonde or white emu Tuesday or Wednesday.

E3 is the one that wiggled. It should be showing signs of hatching Friday or Saturday next week. So 1/31 or 2/1.

I really really hope it doesn’t have a sad ending like Rockporters! Been having nightmares about it

Forgot to add, at the temp theyve been incubated at they should hatch between 50 and 55 days.
