WV TURKEY THUG

I have seen one hen with 6 poults about the size of quail.  That was towards the beginning of June.  Getting lots of reports of hens with poults that same size now.  Seems to be a late hatch here in West TN.
the poults I seen a couple days were the size of quail also. Also saw a very nice longbeard he had the biggest beard I've ever saw atleast a good 11 inch couldn't tell the size of spurs though.

We have been hit by major rain all summer here in the lowcountry of South Carolina.  I was driving around a large WMA today and saw two hens and unfortunately neither had poults.  I'm afraid '13 will be a poor hatch here in SC.

I saw two hen with 5 little ones between them.  Babies were a little bigger than quail. Been a very wet last couple of weeks here in Franklin County, VA.
