Nice. Have yet to see one yet.

I would love to see some, I seen them all over last year but so far this year not any at all. I am certainly glad to see that others are getting pictures that is great news. Hoping for 3 good years in a row!

Between rain this week been trying to get some work done and seen turkeys out in the fields but yet to see first poult. Hope others are seeing some. First year in a while I've not seen at least two broods by now.

My fields are full of hens without poults. Not a good sign im afraid

 

[Kelljp]

Wonder if all this rain may have taken its toll, couldn't have come at a worst time for poults to hatch.

 

[redblood]

I wonder what percentage of hens, actually raise a clutch. I suspect its low

 

[Kelljp]

I've never read or seen anything on that topic but over the years watching them on the farm I know here they actually get about 3 out of 10 poults raised to cold weather.
