Hey everyone!! Soooo ... I raised my two hens with my 2 drakes, they are now a year old and maturing. My hens started laying eggs and "squatting" whenever I walked past them so I figured they were ready for a male. Yay!! So I brought a 2 year old Narragansett male home for them. Couple problems I'm having ... 1- My roosters attacked him immediately, they are significantly smaller and have been beaten up quite good. So I separated the Tom, hes in an enclosure by himself but can still hear the hens clucking and it gets him all riled up. 2- My hens seem to not be interested in mating with the new tom. Hes very handsome, experienced, and struts like a champ, but the hens seem to only "squat" for the drakes . I think I broke my hens lol
I'm new to raising turkeys, and have no idea what to do. So I guess Im just here looking for some experienced Turkey lovers to point me in the right direction.
