Turkey help!

I just ordered chocolate turkeys, and know nothing about them, I've read you have to keep them in a brooder for 9 weeks, thanks for any info!

You should ask over on the Turkey Forum. The people over there will know more about poult care. That being said, I don't know why they would have to stay in a brooder for 9 weeks. I think they could go out when fully feathered, or earlier if it's warm, just like chicks.
