Flock of wild turkeys making their way up into the tall trees behind the house, to roost overnight.

I was sitting in my truck one morning under a bunch of tall pines as the roosting turkeys awoke and returned to earth. Pretty big animals landing all around me, kind of cool.

Wild turkeys are awesome birds! First time I saw them roosting in trees kind of freaked me out. I lived too far north in Ontario for the birds, and didn’t see one until I moved to southern Ontario. Figured the wild bird wasn’t much different from the ones we ate at Christmas. A bit of Canadian culture shock to rock my boat, lol. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦

They’re also nasty buggers if you come across any during a hike! Wasn’t the birds going up the trees! They hit your legs with their wings, and it hurts! A lot! If you’re tiny or a kid, they can break bones! No guilt over the loads of (tame) turkeys I’ve ingested over the years … 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦

@Karen Mintuck I had a friend from work cut and bale my hay fields about a month ago. He accidentally killed a hen sitting on her eggs somewhere in the tall hay. So he took the eggs home and hatched 8 babies. We will be bringing them to my barn this week to put in a big chicken pen (enclosed horse stall) that is currently empty. I need to look up more info on when it will be okay to turn them loose in the same field they were found in. There's lots of trees all around for them.

Reminds me of the years I spent in the Highlands of West Virginia. I used to think turkeys used to sleep on their backs in the oven, taking their feather cloaks off so as not to overheat. I moved back to Virginia, the Shenandoah Valley, where I keep part of my property as a turkey paradise. Nope! Not for hunting. Just for watching. I don't hunt or fish anymore. I just don't like to kill anything anymore.

Maybe you could answer a question for me. I had a friend cut and bale one of my hay fields here on the NY/Pa border last month. He accidentally killed a turkey hen sitting on her eggs, so he took them home and hatched 8 babies. We are bringing them back to my barn this week and putting them in a horse stall that I enclosed with chicken wire years ago for my hens. The pen is currently empty. I'm wondering when I could turn them loose in the same field? I assume natural instincts would tell them to perch in the surrounding trees? Would it be a bad idea or maybe illegal to toss some corn out for them for a few weeks until they adapt to their surroundings? Thanks for any insight. Just trying to do the right thing for them.

@@SPCLPONY you may have circumvented the game laws. In some states you need a permit to keep wild game you order through the mail. Some won't let you keep anything wild. I'm not a lawyer, by the grace of God. As for spreading corn around, some places call "baiting", I don't know of anywhere that is not illegal. I would research everything you need to know on the internet, look it up on hard copy to back it up. I have nothing against legal hunting. I would even let family or neighbors hunt on my land if they asked me. I just don't like to kill anything anymore. And for clarification, I don't dispense legal advice, just opinions.

@@davidbenner2289 Thank you for your reply. I kind of figured there would be legal ramifications involved, even if I was just trying to do the right thing. I understand the corn thing. I keep a salt block out for my 2 horses, but it stays near the barn, not up in the pasture where a game officer would probably frown on it. I still plan to 'raise' them to some degree and probably just turn them loose when it looks like they can fly and hope for the best. I guess I was looking for an opinion of what age they should be fine on their own. I haven't hunted in many years myself, but have nothing against it as long as it's done right.
@davidbenner22893 жыл бұрын
@@SPCLPONY keep a place close to the animals for them to find food and they will stay in the area. However, they'll wander away, in time. They may stay in a few square mile area. Wear red and blue and they may think you are one of them and not run off or fly away. Closest I ever got to one I the wild was a hen out six or eight feet away. I'm known for getting close.

Turkeys can fly and they roost up in trees at night to keep away from predators! I live on a acreage and forest beside us! I have wild Turkey I feed and at night they fly over 6 foot fence and fly up in trees to roost these trees are at least 130 feet high ! So I have seen them fly daily over my fence into my yard and back over at night fall and fly high into the trees to sleep for the night !
