[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5850010, member: 1409"] In many corn-baiting situations, raccoons & crows eat more of the corn than do deer. I know many deer hunters could care less about turkeys (and other birds), but crows may in fact break up more turkey nests in many areas than do raccoons. Crows are very quick to notice a nest-sitting hen turkey periodically leave her nest for feed & water. When she leaves, those perched crows (some of them also nesting high in a tree above the nesting turkeys on the ground) note the dozen eggs now visible. Crows eat turkey eggs, as does about everything else. I would assume corn aflatoxin would kill a crow as fast as a turkey, but it may be that crows are so much smarter than turkeys, they know better than to eat it? [/QUOTE]
