I've seen 3 different groups here in central AL over the past two weeks. Last weekend we saw a hen with 4 poults all could fly and were the size of small chickens. We saw another this weekend in one of our very large food plots with 10 poults that all flew and were a little bigger than quail. The other hen had 8 poults and they were very tiny, the size of small chicks. This wide range in size of poults is pretty common were I hunt. Hopefully most of the little guys make it.

Some promising sightings!  Maybe the hatch we need?

Saw a hen with 9 poults today. These are the first ones I have seen for myself this year. They were pretty small. I'm guessing about a week old.

Haven't saw any yet, still looking...

Saw a hen with 8 poults this morning that couldn't have been more than a couple days old. Hopefully they all make it. This was in the eastern panhandle on wv

5/19, found a lot of scratching, started soft talking and scratching my way thru woods, sign continued to get fresher. Look to my left a Hen is 15' from me, have to get to phone, she doesn't  like me moving, starts to walk away then turns and starts walking back to me, start videoing, then the ground starts moving between us, 8 newly hatched poults. Cant get the video to post here, too big of a file, click on link below, I hope it works, taken me 2 days of trying to get it posted. It was awsome to see interaction between momma Hen and her poults, think when she first saw me move she putted, they all froze, had to been only 7 to 10' from me and I never saw them till she calls for them to follow her.
