So my girl sweepea who hatched out around February just laid her first egg, in November for some inexplicable reason. I know sometimes out of season things can be a sign of problems should I be concerned? Or is she just being weird? Shes a bronze breasted turkey as far as I know. one thing...

not alfalfa. i like first cutting hay. its lighter and they get to nibble on the tassels. pick up a bail at any good farm store. and yeah its hay for horses ect. also yup to the food.

Shes on sawdust with dirt under, she eats game bird feed by purina. I give them sweet hay to burrow in to(not straw, it wont hold the tunnels). They love it. Throw a massive armful in there and they start tunneling like ferrets. And making little bower nests. Lots of things to break line of...
