I just went to stop the turners on my incy and fill with warm water ready for hatching in a couple of days, and one is out and drying! At least 3 others are pipping! I best get organised then! Last edited by pookie on Mon Jun 06, 11 6:54 pm; edited 1 time in total

imo turkey poults are much cuter than chicks as they love being picked up and are very curious creatures.
