Turkey eggs.
I got a really good result yesterday. I called on a friend and during our conversation, he  told me about a chap a few miles up the road from our place, who keeps turkeys. Later on in the day I dropped in on the chap, who turned out to be a really friendly person.
He'd got what looked to be a Norfolk Black stag and four or five  Cambridge Blue hens? I'd not heard of the latter before but they were nice looking bronze coloured birds with just a hint of slatey blue about them. After an interesting chat, I was given 18 of turkey eggs to try in the incubator. As you can imagine, I'm dead chuffed with my gift and they'll be going into the incubator later on today.
 

 
A quick Google has produced this useful information. I just hope that   I manage to hatch some. They look attractive birds, like turkeys used to be.

 That certainly was a good result.  Good luck with them - I'd love to know how many you hatch!

I'll be putting them in a small still air incubator later on this morning. Fingers crossed and hopefully I'll be able to report some good news in 28 days time. Its ten years or probably more since we last reared turkeys. At least the eggs have only travelled two miles.

I keep Narragansetts and normally hatch them in an incubator.  Many of the hens went broody last summer and stayed that way for many weeks, despite my best attempts to dissuade them.  This year we may try letting them hatch some out, if they repeat the performance.
