Turkey Nest

Our resident turkey left her nest long enough this afternoon for me to check on progress. We have one more egg than last time I looked. Wonder if they'll hatch

That's exciting, maybe we can look forward to chick photos in the future.

@tramway I hope so, she laid (I presume it's the same one) 12 eggs last year, but each night one disappeared and she eventually abandoned the remainder. She seems to be spending more time sitting on them this year

Great shot - they're unusual shaped eggs aren't they?

Wow, are these in with the alpacas???

@alinz , yes, amazing that they haven't been trampled, but rhe boys seem to respect her, and skirt round the edhes

Will be good if we get to see the chicks. Doesn't dad help out sitting on the nest?

@nickspicsnz - Definitely an absent father!
