Female turkeys lay four to 17 eggs during a two-week time frame, and the eggs incubate for approximately 28 days. Hens feed their young only for a few hours to a few days. Poults or chicks learn quickly how to take care of themselves. They eat seeds, berries and insects; adult turkeys eat these foods plus acorns and small reptiles. Typical turkey feeding periods are in the early morning and during the afternoon.
Wild turkeys also eat insects and small animals. To prevent blackhead disease and other parasites, newly hatched poults (baby turkeys) should be fed a medicated 28% Turkey Starter for the first 8 weeks. From 9 to 14 weeks they should be fed 20-21% Turkey Grower. Chick medicated starter can also be fed, however the turkey is better. You can find medicated feed at farm stores. Wild turkey poults under two months old prefer to eat bugs and some will not take to the turkey feed you buy at the farm store.
