I have felt sure all were dead in eggs before and they weren't and hatched. So that is why I say that. They might still be alive especially if she was trying to sit on them. You might try putting her in one of those dog houses though. Just put it where she is nesting now and get cover and big brick to prop against it to close off door Take hay and make her nest in there and move eggs in it. It will help protect her and the eggs.

I was saddened to see the turkey eggs under water in the field after 4 inches of rain even though I had tarped the temporary pen. I wore gloves and moved the eggs inside my permanent structure onto a nest of hay and grass and penned her in. Last time I checked, she had not gotten back on her nest. I'm so disappointed and very sad.

Awwwwwwww, sorry to hear that.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they are still developing. Keep us posted

Did you check your eggs? Just wondering how it turned out for you?
