Is our turkey sitting on fertilized eggs?
We live on a small farm in Michigan. We have chickens, ducks and one domestic turkey hen (although she looks like a wild turkey). Anyway, about 2 weeks ago we discovered that she is sitting on a nest with a clutch of eggs almost around the clock. We have a lot of wild turkey's around and as a matter of fact, there were two gobblers crusiing by this morning. We're wondering if maybe these are fertilized eggs she's sitting on. Seems awfully early for any turkey's to be mating. You think these eggs will hatch or is it just wishful thinking?
