RE: turkeys in the backyard
Nice picts... Thanks for posting them...
I have the same situation over here... Turkeys wondering all over, even into my back yard...
Even thoughi don't put food out for them, they like to come by here and do "there thing" quite often.. Many times roosting in the tree's here by the house.
I don't hunt turkeys much, because it gripes my @$$that theycharge so muchfor a tag for what you end up with, even though they are pretty easy to harvest... I find itpretty hard to get too excited about turkey hunting...

RE: turkeys in the backyard
yea, the turkeys only get fed on sunday and mondays when my father isnt working.
the rest of the week they show up and hang out with the chickens and just strut around.

They should really be challenging to hunt

RE: turkeys in the backyard
Are those domestic birds, just wondering because it looks like you have a pretty tall net that is made for keeping birds where you want them. I can get birds to gobble off my back porch but they know better than to come to my yard

they're wild turkeys though.
