Gonna be hatching any poults?

I have 16 chicken eggs in the incubator lock down is monday I think lol I have it written on the kitchen calendar. None of my hens have gone broody.
I will be getting a new Tom soon then I plan to hatch turkey poulets. Our current Tom is not interested in the hens and not doing his job. Not for lack of interest on the girls part they are constantly following him and lie down for him but he just walks away.

What kind of turkeys do you have? Is your tom young? They're kinda slow... lol

Heritage bronze I assume? Broad breasted bronze can't breed naturally. I've had a few different breeds, they were fun but we had bad luck hatching too many poults. We gave them up to focus on other things, I liked them better than the chickens though! Lol
