Strut10 Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 I have a group of 5 hens crossing the field behind the house every morning and evening. But no young'uns with them. I have heard of a few people seeing little turkeys, though. How was the hatch where you are?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Started seeing them back in May down here Don. Last time I saw some was this past Saturday. The little ones here aren't so little anymore. If I happen to get some on this week's trail cam run, I'll post a pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Givan Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Been seeing quite a few. Some are so small that you can barely see them in the grass in the hayfield. Others aren't much smaller than their momma. From the amount I have been seeing, it looks like we had an excellent hatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3seasons Posted July 20, 2010 Report Share Posted July 20, 2010 Looks like we had a heck of a hatch here in MS Ive seen several groups of 2 or 3 hens with 30+ little ones around them. So looks like we may be ok in a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEBRbruiser Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Have been seeing many little ones down here in south central nebraska. Unfortunately we don't really need any more great hatches. We have too many the way it is. So many in fact that most people have quit hunting them because they are just everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
