We're not giving up hope...Incubating Turkey Eggs DAY 7

Candling our turkey eggs on Day 7! Incubating turkey eggs takes 28 days and we are trying to be patient! It is Day 7 and so far we are seeing at least 10 with veins! Fingers Crossed! How man do you see!?

[@ElysiaEnglish]

How many do you see?!

[@gwendleburks8904]

I saw approximately 10. Sometimes I wasn’t sure, it was hard too see.

[@trinaroe5132]

I couldn’t see what you thought were veins.

[@rhondag8128]

I believe there were 12

[@Hollybank5]

How exciting !! Turkey ultrasound 😮🤣

[@carolweyandt2925]

It’s amazing how life comes to be. I grow up in the city more or less. Never seen this before, it’s so cool. Stay safe

[@rondasherwood4858]

Elysia next time you candle the eggs try candling on the opposite end of the egg by putting the light under the egg. We could see better when candling from the underside and discovered we had 8 more than what we thought!!!!!

[@ElysiaEnglish]

I didn’t want to tip the eggs and online it said to do from the fat side of the egg?

[@eMies77]

So fun to watch this progression, cant' wait to see them hatch!

[@vernhedeen9807]

Turkey eggs so very interesting I'm rooting turkeys all the way. They will be so lucky for you to be their new family...good luck to you all as these beautiful eggs progress. Turkey prayers going up for the eggs and your wonderful loving family. Can't wait til.the next update.

[@kathyroman1539]

OMG that was soooo cool the babies are growing god bless English family we love you

[@eileenmetzkow7748]

ELYSIA, PHIL, BOYS, THIS WAS SO EXCITING FOR ME TO WATCH!!! Thank you so much. I’m 65 yr/old Retired Nurse and I’ve never seen this before. Sonograms, yes. But Candling Eggs, Never. A new experience for me as well. Looking forward to next weeks Candling. 😁😁😁🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼💕💕💕🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@gwendleburks8904]

This was so precious watching your little family getting so excited candle your eggs.

[@melonmahfood2439]

This is so exciting! Like you, I was really nervous that the shipping had done the eggs in, but I think your getting turkey babies!!!

[@ssoley2097]

That was so neat. Thank you for taking us along on this journey. Good to see the whole family involved!! 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

[@alicejump2290]

Eggciting! Boys so engaged, really sweet! Blessed and safe days!

[@somanyplusme7437]

I’m excited to watch these progress

[@brazilian-lady9175]

Great information. Thank you for sharing. Special for people like me. Just starting incubating.

[@juliahelland6488]

Thanks for sharing this! Very cool!💯❣️

[@janet929]

That was such an interesting video!! I'm really looking forward to seeing baby Turkey's !!!

[@ndobbins58]

🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼praying for the baby turkeys.

[@tanyahunt9476]

This reminded me of hatching chicks at school when we were 8, it was really exciting! Can’t wait to see how many you get

[@Opalfaye9814]

Your boys are so cute and excited. I hope you get some turkeys 🦃

[@karenturner7983]

Thanks for sharing. 💙💕💙💙

[@lisareatherford8097]

I’ve never had chickens ,turkey or anything like this . Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait to see more

[@iamwhoiamd7056]

Awesome video.

[@Robindigsit]

Thanks for sharing this! 👍

[@sandrarandazzo5172]

Great job!❤️

[@cjg8822]

Awesome to see and I also would give the others another week! Sad so many didn’t make it because of shipping!!

[@shawnmorymcmillion]

What a fantastic experience for you and your family!

[@dtruetheeness]

This video's super cute.

[@Rebelhomeland]

Pretty cool, for sure.

[@jacalli]

They sent them that dirty? They could have been rinsed in warm water. We are incubating eggs too, over 80. Mine were really dirty and I rinsed them. It seems to be ok so far. Turkeys will be so exciting. What an experience for your boys

[@rosedouglas9586]

A dozen turkeys is still good odds (if those 2 are viable too). What a good start for your plans! Hopefully you'll get mostly hens to get even more turkeys! I think it's so cool that you'll have ducks, chickens and turkeys. Are there any other birds that you want to raise on your homestead? 🐔🦆🦃

[@florenceumpherville8560]

Time will tell, 🤞

[@Jo.H.]

Maybe mark the turkey eggs you think are viable

[@LS-um3zq]

I'm glad you have some survivors. What is the rate of survival of eggs that don't have shipping problems?

[@JoanieBowers]

We are eager too.

[@candaceburton1747]

What fun!!!! (Phil--I caught your, "It's a glow-er, not a show-er" remark!! 😅)

[@almafrisius7358]

Amazing. Congratulations 🎉

[@rebeccabasker9324]

I swear egg #7 looked like you can see something wiggling around inside a tiny bit! How exciting!

[@melodytwitchell4898]

Hi totally cool ultra sound turkey eggs so exciting. Loves 🤟 ❤️ 😍

[@toniamccausland4715]

This is so exciting

[@laurenmmendoza3215]

I may be wrong, but I definitely think there were more eggs that looked like they had something growing than didn't.

[@bettyloar2238]

Never seen this process before

[@sheilagrimm1068]

O my goodness love how Exciting thanks for Sharing

[@dsparks149]

Well you try ❤❤❤

[@susanmetzelar549]

Great news

[@fatimar8924]

Vai dar tudo certo , é a lei da natureza

[@franswey2]

❤

[@cynthiakelly202]

Oh what fun!

[@fatimar8924]

🦃♥️♥️🐎🐓🐔🌻🦢🌺🇧🇷🙋🏡 adoro VOCÊS ❤️😍

[@alysiachristensen5475]

Cool.

[@lisaconnelly7731]

Some of the eggs may simply be un-fertilized. The transit delay should not have affected the eggs' viability. Many times hens wait a week till they have a good clutch before starting setting.

[@tammyjohnson7401]

Are you able to reach out and maybe have them send you new eggs? I know the postal service was not careful. This was very exciting. Thank you

[@melindaivey4772]

There was only 6 eggs that didn't have veins. That's a good ratio for eggs that were shipped. Great job

[@dawnasullins5897]

I seen 11

[@sbudzinski]

I'm afraid to watch because I want them all to be viable! Ok here goes

[@wilmaheger7276]

If they are darker it's good. If it shines through its a no. The darker ones will getting darker what means they grow.

[@teresacamp3365]

I counted 11

[@lauriedunn6198]

Good idea not to leave in any that you are sure aren't viable. In elementary school my sister's class incubated turkey eggs and I don't know the details, but a rotten turkey egg exploded all over her. She got sent home from school and my mom ended up throwing the dress away. Hadn't thought of that in decades, until I was watching this.

[@kimpeterson2718]

I counted 12 possible

[@ericwilliams5895]

So seems like the dirtier the egg they seem to all be viable.

[@kellyallen3798]

I counted 11 and 8. That's only 19.

[@gwendurden5096]

In think I counted 13 viable

[@nadinemcgregor1354]

12

[@mohammadafsari2014]

Please clean eggs

[@vickirickman5828]

I like it was 6 that didn't show any body to them

[@susanczajka6327]

I just love you guys but I wish I could get a grip on you guys killing them.. It's my issue, I wish I could understand! Please educate me..

[@davanachase2372]

Why do I have the feeling that after these are hatched, you'll name them and get attached to them and they will become pets and not food? lol

[@lovingmayberry307]

Kept wondering what man's voice i was hearing in the background then realized it was Chase! They're growing up so fast! 💙🩵

[@carolecook1116]

TOO fast! Yes, the voice change. Handsome young men, both of them!!

[@kathyroman1539]

OMG that was soooo cool the babies are growing god bless English family we love you

[@katherinez9654]

Awesome video.
