I live in WNY I have a flock of 16 heritage turkey poults. I’m considering downsizing. Wondering how much I can charge per poult? They are currently 2.5 months old. Hatched on 5/22-5/25. We have bronze, black Spanish, Narragansett, a few mixes. Just wondering an acceptable idea.

Mine are creeping to 6 weeks old.

So I had to put my chicks 4 weeks same age as my goslings outside for a day while my shed was moved. Well for one we almost lost one in the pool because it thought oooh a drink. Then mostly they stayed separate. It was time for me to bring them in and as soon as I opened the playhouse door to...

thank you for the congratulations. I know they are similar so that is the hard part. All the babies are mostly grey so they could be anything. 😂

Here they are I brought them outside for better daylight.

I ordered 3 pilgrim eggs and a set of 6 Toulouse, American buff, pilgrim eggs. So now I’m trying to figure out which ones hatched based on how they look. Out of 8 eggs only 4 hatched. I think only 3 are pictured here though At the time the 4th was in the incubator still. I’ll post another couple...

I have been working on him off and on all day long. So I used warm water in the sink and got i hope all the gunk and shell off of him put him back in the bowl with a dry paper towel, back in the bator closer to the heat and 🤞 he will be ok.

thank you this is very helpful.

I did video the one with the crack but, I Don’t know how to upload iPhone video here. Wondering how long I should wait to see if they hatch now that I candled them tonight.

its a farm innovators 4250 forced air. Since I added water now the humidity is up to 73% so I don’t know if I should lift the lid again or let it go. I don’t want it to drown. I don’t know how to calibrate so I guess I’ll have to look that up.

I had 5 turkey eggs set to hatch over the last weekend. Yesterday one hatched a day late. There is also 2 in there that were supposed to hatch a week ago today. So 7 total. I left the one that hatched yesterday in there all night so he could entice the others to move it along I removed him this...

I did also, let the humidity run out for about a week when I realized the air cells weren’t big enough. So during that period it was running Between 25-30 give or take a little right before lockdown.
