Jorden Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Does weather have an affect on turkeys like it does on whitetails when it comes to breeding. The reason I ask is because up by where I live we still have a lot of snow and it isnt melting fast, so I was wondering if this would affect the turkeys breeding in some way:confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccwhitey Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Sadly it does. Last year in Illinois we enjoyed a nice youth season with a whole week of 70 degree weather and then when first season came around we had snow:(:eek:. This screwed up there breding for almost the whole year. They didn't hardly gobble all season until 5th season which is mid may. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slaw Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 you must have been in the southern zone whitey, we had record breaking temps in the low 20s in montgomery county, on the southern border of the northern zone.....but still it was non-stop action.
