turkey eggs hatching!(Many PICS Added!)

[oodymex]

i have 5 turkey eggs in my still air incubator. one egg is rolling and chirping....but i have yet to notice any other ones. hopefully more start to move, although on my first try one turkey chick is better then none!

Congrats!

I tried to get turkey eggs to hatch earlier on in the summer but no luck.
I hope all 5 hatch for you!

Congratulations! Turkey poults are so much fun. I have 4 Bourbon Reds and 1 Standard Bronze that I hatched out on 7/17.

What type of turkeys are they? Hope you'll post pics of your cute little fuzzies.

ummm im not sure but i think they are porter calicos.... but guess what another one has peeped! that makes two chicks! hope the other ones also peep soon...

temp at 101.1 and humidity at 63%

Temp and humidity sound good. Give those turkeys a little time i wouldnt be suprised to see you get a 100% hatch if they where all alive when you put them down for hatching. I love the turkey poults i hatched out eailer this year. 4 bourbon reds, it looks like i have 2 pairs. I got 10 eggs cooking now that i cant wait another 3 weeks for

bad news

the poult that had peeped yesterday....well its "peep" was as far as it got

....i tried to help it out this morning but to my discontent it was dead. so i guess only 2 lil poults out of 6 successfully made it. so how long should i wait till i give up on the rest of the eggs in the bator?
