Default RE: What food source in TX does turkey use most?

Most any ranch in Texas has a huge supplemental feeding program. As a general rule though that is exactly what they are a supplemental feeding program. You can't just sit on a feeder and wait. If you do they have to many other feeders to use. The habitat is pretty sparce. Insects, berries, etc. are all a part of the diet. But in a dry year there won't be much natural vegetation. Baiting in Texas produces different results than baiting in other states. It isn't nearly as effective in my opinion. Plus, at a quality ranch they'll be baiting in so many places it will be so many food sources that it is no different than checking fields, etc...
