Hi Arron - well our turkeys arrived in stages too . first we got the white ones that was about 18mths ago - but the dreaded foxes got in we only have two left now I brought the bronze hen about 12 mts ago and the white ones wouldn't have anything to do with her - it was so sad seeing her in the yard by herself just pipping to you when you walked in , so when we went to Liz's to get some more chickens she had some turkey . that was Feb this year - we ended up with 2 males of the same as your bronze/red cross . As you see the bronze hen is very happy now she went clucky and we put 12 eggs under her and she brought out 12 little ones - we left 2 with her and put the other 10 in a separate cage . their about 4 weeks now and mums a happy turkey now.- Billie ;D
