I believe I read somewhere that it takes 10 to 14 days after they hatch for them to be able to fly. I don't recall how far they can fly or if it is just enough for them to get on roost.

10 days, but they can only fly straight up, and only for maybe 10 feet or so. Thats why the first 10 days are the most crucial for a turkey poult.
I swear, no one gave me the answers!
