The backyard jakes...

It will be fun to watch their rituals in the spring time. But I would think they split up sometime this spring. Even that they get fed good, I don't think they will tolerate each other for mates.
 
When I had my farm, my only neighbor was about 400 yards away and had some wild turkeys he raised from eggs. They wouldn't leave his yard, but I would make all my buddies freak out when I would call and get an answer from them, pretty much year round. LOL

I'm not sure what would have happened had they come strutting in one day, there was wild birds nearby so it may have been ugly. HAHA
 
Man, that is awesome. Can i come and trap them and bring bring them back to Wayne County so we will have three birds to hunt. I kid, but i remember when i could hear them from my porch too. Not now.

they were together last spring, now as longbeards I wonder if they will stick together when the hens show up. Usually there aren't many turkeys around the house, except in the spring when they scatter and hens show up looking for nesting places.
