Baby Turkeys

While I was cooking breakfast this morning, I noticed that the 3 of the toms had flew in the turkey pen with the new momma and her babies.  Kyle and Troy went out to walk them back out.  Momma turkey had left her babies to get away from the toms.  Unfortunately, we had temperatures in the 30's last night and the babies were nearly gone.  As always, all cold babies go into my shirt. After keeping them close for nearly an hour, 4 of the 5 perked back up and were able to be put back with momma turkey.  We lost the 5th one.  We seem to have such a terrible time with baby turkeys.
