Who called them a herd? I bet they don't do very much turkey hunting. Definately a flock. It's not a stupid question though. BB

Good un Vance!!:DI agree no stupid ?'s here!I'd like to see a herd of turks,must be some bigole birds!!!:DFlocks...;)

RE: Stupid question
 

In my neck of the woods they are call a "Bigmessa".

Went out thar on the power lines yesserday and saw a Bigmessa turkeys.

(I think semi normal folk would call them a flock though).

Ok , I'll throw you a curve ball here. A flock of turkeys are often found in the fall and winter as a family flock sticks togeather or sexes tend to group . In the spring as the birds break up and a Tom joins aflock of hens for breading the group of birds become a Harrem ;)...BT

RE: Stupid question
 

I should of mentioned we call them things other than flocks too.Some I can't mention on here without gettin booted:D

RE: Stupid question
 

I always called a group of turkeys a drove...lots of other people use to also...not as common now days.

RE: Stupid question
 

Ifly is right. The correct referrence to a group of turkeys is a "drove".:eek:

RE: Stupid question
 

I guess the correct word is flock...around here in Va, most everyone says "gang"...if you were from Austrailia, you would use the word "mob"

RE: Stupid question
 

Well, Slap my Mama and call me stupid!

All the oldtimers around here call a group of turkeys a "drove". But when I did a search:
