White Turkey eggs

[cmobley]

My 3 hens have always laid what I call regular colored eggs just cream color with spots. Recently one is laying pure white eggs they look like duck eggs no spots and elongated instead of the usual tear drop shape. She’s also trying to go broody but only laying every 3 days or so but she’s hoarding chicken eggs. I take all the eggs everyday. Anyone have turkeys laying pure white eggs or does this just happen occasionally?

About this time of year I see a few in hens that have been laying the whole season. The hens that sat on eggs and started again don't seem to lose color.

I have seen a very rare nearly white egg after a long session of laying. I have never seen a turkey hen lay a duck shaped egg, only the classic pointy end egg.

If they look like duck eggs, I would suspect that they are duck eggs.

They’re not duck eggs my ducks are locked in a pen away from the chickens. It’s a white Turkey egg. And it’s being laid by my youngest blue red hen.
