Any tips for how to cook him? He's almost a year old. Do you think he'd have tough meat?

Our turkey is very similar! He goes after us, our dog, our goats, and even mates with dead roosters, which is so disturbing! I'm wondering if this guy might need to be dinner as well.

It's hard to get a good picture of them, but you can at least see all of their heads. A week old today!

So I haven't read any other accounts of this happening, and I'm wondering if it's normal or a red flag that we should cull this fella. *Warning* The following may not be suitable for younger readers. My husband will, from time to time, cull a rooster if we have too many & it is being too...

I'll try to get some good pictures soon! I was too caught up in the moment to take pictures while they were hatching. :p

Out of 7 duck eggs incubated, six hatched and are healthy!

For anyone interested! All 7 duck eggs (from the washed bunch) seem to be doing well in the incubator. I see movement with a flashlight under them, and now, at 25 days, 4 of them have pipped! I can even hear chirping :D I'm excited to see what happens!

That's encouraging!

Thank you!

For sure! I agree with you 100%. I'm not mad at her. If anything, it was my mistake, not thinking ahead.

Thank you! I really hope they aren't ruined. I might still try and candle weekly to see if there is any progress.

Just married into an acreage with ducks, chickens, geese, turkey, goats, and a big white dog. I am wanting to do so much and have so many questions! First of all, I have duck eggs I want to incubate, and my mom came over today, and washed them...
