Turk is the sole survivor of the trio
Both of his ladies have been taken by predators. The one little turkey has been orphaned twice. I put him back with the other poults that are being raised by the chickens. He still doesn’t understand chicken language clearly but is learning. Turk stays nearby. We have 7 youngsters who all appear to be healthy. The older ones are getting their turkey voices now and no longer peep, but rather kind of squeak. It reminds me of teenage boys…only not nearly as rowdy.
One of the hens in the chicken house has two turkey eggs she has been sitting on and they each have little holes in them and peeps coming from inside so we may have more little ones running around soon.
