• Saturday, April 5, 2008 - One Dozen Turkey Eggs!

Posted in Turkeys

Very egg-siting!  A full dozen!  I've got the incubator up and running and I am hoping to put the eggs in tomorrow.  It takes about that long to get it regulated for temperature.  I want to make sure it's all done right.  A scientist I am not and for me to be fiddling around with thermometers, thermostats and hygrometers is simply not my style!  You're never too old to learn!

Notice the jumbo egg on the left!  I am sure it has 2 yolks.  I will be surprised if it doesn't!  I'll keep you posted!

Here's the mother hen who has been doing all of the laying!

Here are all 3 turkeys.  The big one in front was a freebie.  All were supposed to go into the freezer, but here we are!  (If you look close to the left of the turkey above, there's a white rooster sitting on a brooder box.  He was the lone escapee who managed to avoid execution back during butchering!)

The turkeys are not impressed with the April snowstorm!

I see you have a Royal Palm, that is what we raise. They are so pretty! Hope all of your eggs hatch!
