Working hard at making baby turkeys. I'm expecting the first baby turkeys to hatch sometime this week.

Awesome! I wouldn't be reaching under no turkey looking for babies... I'm a little skeered of turkeys, lol!

Well if your scarred - say you're scarred -:lol

You have good reason to be scarred though. Turkey pecks draw blood, but not so much that they leave a welt, just a bloody pinch really. Still quite a bit worse than a rooster peck though.
