Yep...same here. A hen can be taken in the spring if it has a beard. A hen can be taken in the fall....but not a whole lot are.

Ifyou have a lot of hens in your area....the early season might be tough, because the gobblers will be extremely henned up. The later seasons should be better....once the hens start nesting, there will be less hens around and the Toms will be more vulnerable.
