Turkey eggs

A couple of days ago I posted a summary of the current egg-laying propensities of our various poultry. Angela asked about turkey eggs. Today our young Norfolk Black turkey hens laid their first egg. It is pictured here next to a chicken egg that was also laid today. Noticeably larger, with attractive speckles. To me they taste the same as a chicken egg. However, we will forgo eating any turkey eggs laid this Spring as we intend to hatch them.
