Yea. It does roam but the rain keeps them inside most of the time.

As for the other two tom, Xmas is almost here. They will be useful soon.

Roseey0:
I don't know if am one yet
I just love the meat. Lol

Roseey0:
Thank you.
I will separate them by the end of the day. What other steps should I take after the separation. I just watched a YouTube video of mating behavior of turkey, where they have to stand for sometime on the hen before copulating. My fear is that the tom is heavier than my hen and she's the only one I have. Pls advice.

Candling Turkey Eggs

If you are like me, egg candling will be one if the most favorite things in your poultry journey. I am just impatient to a fault!

Candling eggs has several advantages. However just like any other thing, it also has its disadvantages. For me the pleasure of tracking the development of the tiny chick in the egg supercedes any other risk there may be. Taking precautions reduces most of the risks associated with candling.

Over the next 28 days, I am going to take you on a journey into the world of candling turkey eggs. My turkey is doing a natural incubation. As a result, I will schedule the procedure so as not to upset the mother.

I will upload videos and pictures here so that you can follow the whole process. The posts will be titled using the number of day the candling is taking place so that it can be easy to follow.

Please don't forget to leave your messages behind.

This will be an interesting journey.

my Tom aint gentle, it chases me and my younger ones, i have to wooz a suma-tumbling to know the boss feeding it. Sometimes it tries to challenge me but i scare it or beat it till it runs into hiding.

This is too funny. Male turkeys are mostly gentle compared to their chicken counterparts. Those guys virtually rape their ladies all the time!

My 8 month old tom is gentle to a fault. He can strut all day and forget to eat. The hen are always hard to get. The only exception is when the hen are on heat. Any other day, the tom is left so horribly lonely that I feel for him.

There is a reason why the female turkeys will not want the tom to mate with her all the time. After each bout of sex, the female comes out worse. They are mostly left with messy scratches on the upper part of the body.

I don't have personal experience but I have met farmers who lost a hen or two after mating. This is due to the massive weight of the male. The weight can lead to internal injuries to the female leading to death.

The mating ritual of turkeys take quite a long time. However the actual intercourse is supposed to last for just a fraction of a second. This though is not always the case.

The male sometimes have a hard time positioning himself probably on the hen. This increases the time that the tom stays on the female. This can lead to suffocation.

Losing an adult turkey is one of the difficult times as a farmer. As much as possible,  try and keep an eye on the mating pairs to avoid unnecessary loss of flock.

The incubation period for the turkey is 28 days. Turkeys are pretty good natural incubators meaning they can pretty well take care of their eggs until it hatches. However they are not as good mothers. When it comes to mothering their young, I am tempted to believe that turkeys and guinea fowls are the lamest!

Turkey eggs are pretty precious and expensive. Well needless to say the poults are much expensive and precious. Day-old poults are very much a delight to watch. They are quite bigger than chicken at birth. They look fluffy and all but they are also very fragile. They are not as strong like the chicken. A poult can virtually die for no apparent reason at all!

After the hatch, most farmers are left with the question of whether to allow the turkey hen take care of the poults or take them away. Taking the poults from the hen is a crucial decision because it can be the difference between having a horrible poult mortality and raising a lovely flock.

As a rule, I always take my poults away from the mother. At the start of the hatch, the poults usually hatch out after three days. When the last poult come out, the hen indicates the readiness to move out. At that, time, I take the hen out gently to the 'recovery room'. In that room, I have high energy meal consisting of glucose powder and grains. After two days, the hen seems fine and is allowed back to the flocks.

The poults are however taken to the 'nursery'. In the nursery, I have a setup of lamps for heating the area. The poults are immediately fed on mashed nuts. The extra cholesterol is good for them. After a week, they are fed their normal feed. I ensure that the poults also get as much leaves as possible. After about three weeks, the poults are again moved to another area called the growing room where they integrate with the other flock gradually until they become adults.

How can you distinguish 2 weeks old Tom from Hen?

Don't believe anything you hear under Buhari's Regime.
That was how they killed all the Boko Haram boys but more suicide bombings occours daily.
That was how they said 900 chibok girls were kidnapped and he promised to return them alive if he is elected the president, what happened when he became the president ?? He found all the kidnapped girls and returned them to their families ??

Continue supporting Buhari because y'all have been programmed, you can't make use of your brain.

Pls I'm very sorry for not coming online regularly
these days. It's because my iPhone 6 had a
problem and my iPad battery is dead. My sister is
with my Samsung galaxy note 4. I'm just here at
home sitting alone since my parents travelled to
London. I would have to Skype with you but I
misplaced my Apple laptop power pack, so I have
to hit south Africa to get a new one. I wanted to
visit the mall tonight but my aunt went out
with my bugatti and my younger is out with
the 2014 Range Rover. my Toyota Highlander had
a little problem, the tyre of Honda CRV is flat and
I hate driving Lexus jeep at night. I tried calling
our driver to come and pick me with ma mum's
Ferrari but no credit in my account. Can u
buy me MTN 2 cedis?

MEGGATRON:
Men were advised to stay away from women during
the Transit of Venus as happened this morning.
Staying away here, very obviously, being a
euphemism for not getting busy between the sheets.
So, what should we read when a man says no

1. He’s not into you… at the moment… he’s into
someone else… you can take this literally or
metaphorically ( J ), depending on your relationship
with him.

2. He on an orientation experiment… and is steeling
himself to say no to you to do full justice to his
experiment.

3. He has realised that straight is not his sexual
calling, and this is his way of hoping you’d guess.

4. You don’t do it for him anymore.

5. The Poonam Pandeys and Rozlyn Khans have
‘exposed’ him to another side.

6. He doesn’t need anyone but himself to enjoy
anymore… that should be an easy one to figure
out!

7. Laptops, iPhones, and all that radiation have
lowered his libido.

8.Vicky Donor has spoiled it for him. Those ‘little
fellows’ swimming in the bottles have taken the fun
out of the act.

9. Time to service the equipment, we say. After all,
you can’t take junior for granted, and not make
any allowances for his occasional dips, troughs and
lows! He can’t be high and hard every time, can he?

10. If the man’s been on a s exual binge of late,
maybe this is his way of telling himself to slow
down lest the peaks give way to plateaus. He’d like
his performances to always peak. Going out on a
limp is not his scene!

I sympathise with the family of the bereaved and pray such never happens again...I want to however digress a bit and say that Ghana and other African countries seem to rejoice whenever they hear of disasters in Nigeria; while I am not celebrating this (God forbid that I do), I hope Ghanaians will learn that disasters are not synonymous with Nigeria alone. It's Boko Haram today in Nigeria, who knows what will raise its ugly head tomorrow in Ghana? Nigeria will rise again and its rising will shame a lot of people, especially our enemies. Once again, I wish the bereaved family God's grace to bear the loss.
