She is getting comfortable and decided that my shirt is great hiding spot/playground. Ordered her a Borneo cage and lots of toys, ropes, and sleeping spots from Exotic Nutrition today. Can't wait for that to come in so we can set up her new space, not that she will be in it very often. 🤣

Day 2 of the broody Tom. Gave him some straw for bedding while he was out eating and removed 1 broken egg.

Has anyone had a turkey tom go broody? I have read it is not common, so I think my guy is confused. 🤣 He is real protective when I move poults in the yard, so now that they have grown up, I guess he wants to be a daddy again. And to anyone who asks, yes, he is a tom. I have seen him breed and I have poults from him.

He keeps trying to sit on one egg after one of the chickens lays it, so I decided to give him a few more bym eggs and watch to see if he successfully hatches chicks. Hopefully he doesn't crush the eggs. 😬

I plan on giving him some straw for bedding in a bit, so I will video that and document his journey to see if he makes it to hatch day. 🤞
