Why? Tell Me Why!: Turkey Eggs

[styxrockers]

that answer is inadequate!

[JesusChristRulesYOU]

They are raising turkeys just to kill them, and that is a sin. The turkeys deserve a chance at life and to life happy and free, but instead, there are millions just hatched to be murdered, and that is wrong.

[MapleFriends]

@JesusChristRulesYOU Animals don't have souls. Who cares.

[tureno1996]

@JesusChristRulesYOU

hey you know they raise corn just to kill them too. why do u care so much about animals and not plants?

plants are more important to the ecosystem then an animal that shits on everything

[NWforager]

Some one could easily corner a niche market buy setting up a turkey egg operation .=D

I have 2 turkeys and 1 hen. They lay eggs faster than a family of 4 can eat them. The hen has kinda retired cause shes old, but she just pushes the turkeys out of the nest and broods on their eggs. The 2 turkeys were raised by the hen. Its hilarious watching their antics. Im going to get to day old chicks and place them under the hen to stop her brooding. Turkey eggs are stronger in flavour, fills the fryer and i suspect is higher in good and bad cholestrol.

Turkey eggs are the new caviar.

[clarissa6002]

My kids thought duck eggs were great because it gave them a whole pan of eggs, but because there are more chicken farms, chicken eggs are cheaper by the panful, and a tamer flavor, appealing for a wider consumer market. I'm just glad I don't have to grow my own.

[SalchichaPolaca]

3 bucks each?? wtf... thats expensive

[SplendidDissenter]

no shit?

[Truthiness231]

Um, OK... *trying to digest this video*

... chicken eggs, that is the ones you buy in the store, are non-fertilized. They can't produce a chicken. Ever. I would assume that, given the discussion, turkey's lay non-fertilized eggs as well. Now, these eggs aren't going to produce a turkey, so... what do they do with them? Do they just make sure that turkeys always get laid regularly, so they never lay non-fertilized eggs? The way it was described is confusing, and I have no experience with turkeys

[Exbrolly2000]

Turkeys can produce both kinds of eggs

And it's uncontrolable

So unless they hire thousands of people to check eggs by hand

its not gonna happend

[winterborn82]

their only unfertilized because the hen dont have rooster to mate with, the dont separate the rooster from hens with turkeys, it would be counter productive. if you were to buy your chicken eggs from a small farm you might could end up with fertilised eggs. it doesn't hurt anything they just have a shorter shelf life

[Kanashto]

lmao ! 0:28 -> 0:31 how he said it

[pop1290]

ok who asked that ?

[JumpStop1]

turkey eggs are pretty good to eat, some relatives of mine had a farm when i was younger and every once in a while i would be outside in the yard chasing the turkeys and playing with them and then later that night we would be eating the same turkey from earlier (of course i didnt know that till i was a lot older). and then the morning after its egg were breakfast

[BryanBeatsYouAll]

haha what'd you do when you found out it was the same turkey?

[JumpStop1]

i was a little disturbed, but i mean i didn't know at the time

[Kisinkona]

That's so sad....in Asia, I guess a lot of kids have pet dogs and cats who they play with during the day and end up eating for dinner....People are such carnivores....nothings safe from them

[blackghost1011]

do you really believe that? those spam comments are really annoying, kind of like being rick rolled on youtube

[blackghost1011]

I'm talking to the guy who left the spam comment if you didn't know

[DRUNKCANADIAN]

yuck?

[DemonRecordS]

HOLY HELL!

[inthefade]

Didn't really get into the details did they?

I wanted to know about the egg cycle of Turkeys. Do they lay as often as chickens? Are the eggs bigger?

[JumpStop1]

you want more details watch the show. and yeah they are bigger eggs

[zepplinjetta]

Google is your friend :)

[inthefade]

Yeah I know. Rather than looking for an answer, I'm making a comment on the thoroughness of the video.

What would you think if I posted a Youtube video with me just saying "Turkey Eggs; Look them up on Wikipedia!"

What is the point?

If you are going to produce a video on a scientific topic it only makes sense to cover the basic questions and information that will help contextualize the subject matter.

[Truthiness231]

Yeah no joke; I have to do research now just to understand what I've seen...

Discovery Channel: your viewers expect more from you.

[drhoecker]

i have eaten many turkey eggs,they are good.

[nitch543]

TIME TO GET ME SOME TURKEYS

[steadfast1984]

hahahaha a ropey egg

[TerraGamerX]

Hmm, of all things, this video made me think ... do farmers these days have internet? He mentioned "research".

[godofwar2masterR]

More than liley

[miragebird]

Doesn't have to be high speed, It could be dial-up.

[n3wby001]

Farmers have it so good. They have to work two /three times a year and get thee rest of the year off or they just hire some bum to do their work for them(drive a truck around the field).

[GreatBigSlide]

There is a lot more to farming then that retard, they work full time and have to get up at 5-6 in the morning every day

Weekdays and weekends

[banana2202]

called broad band

[NitroPem]

cool

[carmie1818]

For some reason a "ropey", chewy" egg, just doesn't sound appetizing.

[EreinionEluchil]

You three are morons.
