I dont think the weather has a thing to do with it.  Lengthening of days triggers it.   It might get the toms to gobble a little more but it dont change the hens biological clock. Mother nature has a way of taking care of things  :icon_thumright:

Turkeys are as smart as hunters make em and public land offers more classes.
George Washington didn't use his freedom of speech to defeat the British, he shot them.

on this thread i was refering to the effects of warm temps on a Gobbler not so much on a hen. i realize that longer days bring on the urge to breed and set for a hen. but on these warm days in Feb. when the temps get in the 70's for a day or two it does change the mind set of the gobblers
