Hang in there it could be a long night for the new mommie.."you" I remember my first I was just out of this world..I had a baby turkey hatch today my first turkey ever to have...good luck and congrats on your hatch..
Im so excited!! I feel bad it has to do so much work lol....Poor little babies chirping up a storm and breathing hard! But I tell ya its a quick little baby! In the last 15 minutes it went from nicely cracked to open enough to see beak and feathers!!
Its through the membrane...completely open! How long normally till its done from this point???? Im so excited!!!!!!
Its the only one or 7 that is doing more than rocking. The other 6 arent even cracked. I hope thats ok...Most of them are rocking tho. Not near as much as this little guy (well, hopefully girl). This one started peeping last night and Im pretty sure I heard multiple peeps earlier, but its possible it was only this one....either way I'll be happy if I get one or two! --I say that now, but you never know lol
