I have a Royal Palm and mystery mix hen that have decided to lay eggs in our garage on a shelf. The Royal Palm seems to be laying an egg every other day. We have two so far from her. The other hen is in the nest right now laying her first egg, I think. They’ve been dropping on the ground to mate with the Tom for about a week and a half, so they might be fertile. After watching the first girl pacing in the garage last week, we put a box with goat hay near the spot she kept sitting on. I swear, she was trying to lay them on a big fluorescent light we are saving to put in the basement! It’s very sweet that they let us look on a ladder and seem happy to have their nest near us. BUT I don’t think this is turkey egg season? They are going to be a year old this July. Is this “normal” for younger turkeys and what are the chances the eggs will hatch in a Missouri garage in the winter?
