Best Answer

Wild turkeys are birds and produce eggs the same way all birds do. The male deposits sperm within the female's cloaca, which is then carried up near the ovary where an egg is fertilized. After fertilization, the egg is released into the reproductive tract where the yolk and a shell are developed around the egg. Once the shell has hardened, the female turkey lays the egg and incubates it until it hatches.

it depends on where they nest. some nest on the ground and some nest in trees. the ground nesters can move the eggs a short distance but the tree nesters cant.
