Are you sure Vember - I live in greece.

Leave the food with them as long as they know where it is, they might just sleep being sooo small

And yes I'm sure, glad to help send me ur add and I'll do it tomorrow

You lucky lucky Mabel, I LOVE TURKEYS

I showed the cats the babys. one licked her lips and meowed and the other one (lazy) just looked.

I've got them in a box and they have gone very quiet now. Going to put some fleece over the top of the box to keep them warm. Hope they survive the night. one does not look very well. I suppose I would not be very happy with my feet tied together either.
:shock:

Well you learn something new every day, didn´t realise you sometimes had problems with chicks standing up- hope the turkeys are ok Mabel

the worst news, both babies died in the night. I got up about 5 a.m. to check and one had died and this morning the other one had gone. So my turkey rearing days didn't last long. At least the cats didn't get them. :cry:

Hope it wasn't something I did (like tying their legs together).

Feel a bit like the Monty Python dead parrot sketch.

Anyway, thanks for all your help. Love this site.

Thanks Vember. and for the offer. Think I'll stay away from poultry until I am ready for it. May take you up on your offer then.

Bad luck Mabel, at least you gave them a chance. :cry:
