Went and cut grass around the camp at our place in Clarke County last weekend and saw a hen with 8 poults. I was a little surprised how small they were, a little smaller than a chicken. Think they will b ok?
Probably not, most of them will get eaten by something before they are a year old.
It's just the life of a turkey. But if they have almost made it to chicken size, they have already beaten the odds and some of them should make it to adulthood. The hen has done well to raise 8 to that age.
