a bit on the small side???

This pic was taken today. First I've seen of any poults this year. But don't they look 2-3 months behind schedule?

Yeah look well behind.

I wouldn't bank on them making it.

Must've been a late breeding or a renesting. Hens can store sperm in they're oviducts for safe keeping if needed.

I have a whole crop of poults that didn't hit the ground until august , they were the result of third nesting round, to much may rain and to many predators and tractors in late june. the species will go on :tu:

That's what I'd be concerned about too. All the young-of-the year turkeys I've seen pretty much look, run, and fly like mama at this point.

Haven't seen any that small and this late.

I've got the same small poults in Rutherford also. Probably 20 poults with a group of around 3-4 adults.

I mowed this area right after this pick was taken. I got pics of this group the following two days, and then no more. There was 2 hens, and almost full grown poult, and at least five poults the size shown in the other pics. Hope they made it.

All present and accounted for!
