Ok , I told ya all I don' t know everything ![] This is something that I have been thinking of for sometime. The thought came to my mind after seeing so many hens with Toms that just seem to walk with them and feed but have nothing to do with them. I noticed it again today just 200yds up the road, a Big Gobbler 11in rope just walking with 4 hens, and having nothing to do with the hens. I' ve kept my eye out for this question/answer and don' t seem to see any kind of topic on it.

So what do you think ? can ya tell me do they mate the first year and set on a Clutch? or should we send this one to T.R. to see if he knows ?...BT
