noodle one Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 We all know that turkeys will eat almost any thing. If it moves,grows ,or flies turkeys will eat it. After a successful hunt ,how many of you check the crop to see what they have been eating? I always check the crop because it sometimes helps me to know where to look for birds. Sometimes it is a mixed bag, other times it can be very helpful. Most of the birds that I have taken have had dandelion buds in their crops. So when I am hunting and find a good patch of dandelion flowers ,I keep that in mind for later on in the season when the birds can be hard to find. I know they grow along back dirt roads and fire trails and around some fields. It has helped me in the pass so I am always on the lookout for them. What is the strangest thing you have found?
