Yes gobble good from the roost and ya need to be on them quick. After that they just follow hens. Till the hens tire or the Tom tires and then the Toms flat lay down in fields....strangest thing I ever saw.....then they buddy up.

Saw many Bachelor groups of good Toms and Jakes still together. Saw groups of hens - Saw a few Toms just walking after Mrs. Hen as if they are out on a shopping trip with the Mrs. The Toms looked dejected and forlourned!

No mating to speak of.....and after 8:00 AM bad case of Lock Jaw! Hush Mouth.....No talkie!

But I did harvest a Bearded Hen - 7 inch beard - during my 20th year hunting the YouPee.....Ya Der hey! and Miss Sassy is going on the wall forever!

She came in just a catawholling to me........and was the 3rd Bearded Hen I have seen in my lifetime!
