It took my bronze turkey about 8 months to go broody,and then she stayed broody for about 2 months.

My Bourbon Red turkeys laid eggs in late February last year! and went broody when there were about 15-20 eggs in the nest. It was VERY early -- in mid March. they laid eggs and went broody after that all summer long. One hen just got off a nest she layed in October!
