If any of yall turkey experts are still on I need a little advice. I have a dilema. This evening I watched 8 hens a jake and a Tom all bed down. The problem is it is on private that buts up to public and the birds are roosting about 30 yards in on the private side and did not cross onto public. The Tom would not leave the hens for anything. I even got to watch him breed one of the hens which is a first for me!

My question is would you go after the tom on this unit or go back after the jakes that I had this morning on a differant unit. I'm not real sure if a Tom beds down with the hens if you can call him off of them in the morning.

None of the birds on the unit with the Tom were talking at all. I called to a dang jake that was on private and he just turned and went right back where he came from.
