.....or that all of them want to be "momma".

It's wet here, but I'll try to carry a pocket camera with me when I go out..... NOT that you're likely to see a glimpse of the egg, however. It always seems to be hidden by a pile of hens. Hilarious!

The female turkey is still using the roost, even though I've left one egg in her nest to try to get her interested in covering it. Rolling my eyes.
