I have four chicken hens that have hatched 10 turkey poults. The poults are with their "moms" but are jumping out of the nesting boxes. I am not sure what to do with them now? I have offered feed and water...should they be moved to a brooder setup or just left alone with their moms?
 
First of all,

Second, if they're jumping out from under mama, then they'll have a hard time staying warm if they can't get back under mama. Maybe a separate pen with enough space for mama and her babies?
