Hi I'll answer this from a farmers point of view who has turkeys. We can eat their eggs and they lay them. But they SUCK at it. Laying on them, trying to incubate babies, I had a hen that laid on 4 potatoes rather than her 13 egg clutch. Turkeys lay eggs in clutches, around 12-15 eggs at a time (which accounts for only a 2 week time frame about twice a year) and if the turkey hen doesn't lay on the eggs you have to take them an incubate yourself because they are dumb. They just don't lay often
