Turkey nest

Found the first nest of the year for me anyways. Unfortunately it was right in the middle of my hay field, so I doubt the hen will be coming back to it

That's what I did, but in the past, we've never had luck with them returning. Seems they don't like the sudden change from acres of waist high oats to a 14'×14' square of knee high

Could off took the eggs and tryed to incubate them yourself with a little effort they might would have hatched.

We have poultry houses too. That would be a big no no if we tried to raise them. Aside from the fact I'm pretty sure its frowned upon to do that.
