Thanks Padge.I may have a solution,I do have turkeys,but cant always find their eggs, :P however my OH just suggested leave them in their house a bit longer in the morning so they are still in this morning,see what happens!! Why didn't I think of that!!!!! :-[

:lol: ours are free range but we always shut them in for a month when we first get the eggs.

let me know if you still want any and I will start saving them. I don't want to hatch any this year but my stag is very fertile. He is a norfolk bronze and the females are lavender. You tend to get a mixture of one or the other. I am using them for baking at present but am running out of ideas of what to do with them!
