[QUOTE="Boll Weevil, post: 5576646, member: 10006"] Turkman, Later in the growing season absolutely, height becomes an issue when the hen can no longer see over the crop. Early to mid though it’s great and slam full o bugs which the little guys need to grow fast. Grasses that form a solid thatch type mat is what won’t let little turkeys get thru; pasture type grasses like fescue or Bermuda are the absolute worst. The crops discussed here are all more stalks/stems vs an mat and poults have no issue. If drilled in rows even easier to navigate. Holding birds to help spring numbers…something green thru winter. Winter wheat, rye, or oats. Something that doesn’t go to sleep. At some point akerns and beechnuts will run out, rot, sprout, or sour. If you got enough green though, it’ll help hold birds close(er).
