Mossberg500Guy Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 So glad this years winter hasn't been so harsh got only a few inches on the ground, this time last year it was up past my windows lol, its great for the Turkeys to get to food source under the snow, i knows its not over probably another 6 to 8 weeks of winter hope its over soon but how do you think this will affect the Breeding Season i think it will be early. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Couldn't agree more! It has been great seeing turkey on the hill this winter...that just never happens. They have kept the woods turned up eating. As far as breeding it all depends on any late storms that could appear...Lets just hope there isn't much cold rain this spring. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the last part I think a cold wet spring hurts way more than a bad winter. Last winter was bad but I saw more birds this year than I have in a few years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATbuckhunter Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 This coupled with the large amounts of acorns on the ground shows that were going to have a good spring turkey season and hopefully great fawn recruitment for deer. I'm excited to see how its going to effect turkey and deer season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Agree, so far so good on a mild winter. We really won't know how the critters rebound for a few years though. As above posts stated, hoping for a non wet spring for the turkeys. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LET EM GROW Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Hoping for a fairly dry spring as well, i love snow and winter but this year i think id be satisfied with very little snow.. I think the breeding season wont start until the hen feels the ground temperature is warm enough, for nesting.. so id say by march we would know better? idk, thats how i always tried to time it... but they surprise me every time.. dang birds.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
