[QUOTE="bigtex, post: 2794742, member: 2245"] Yes, turkeys certainly like the "bugs" lol. I spent a couple of hours yesterday sitting in a shooting house overlooking a 3/4 acre food plot, just to see what was coming in to feed. Sure enough a flock of 10-12 hens came in and started chassing what looked like grasshoppers. This plot is mostly a mix of clovers and orchard grass. Not much eats the orchard grass but it is a good place for the insects to hide in. FYI, don't rule out "weeds" some are a very good source of cover and food. In fact the deer on my place PREFER the weeds over wheat and clover, lol. That is why when I eventually get my two clear cuts done I am going to let it regenerate naturally, hopefully in warm season grasses. [/QUOTE]
