Title: how are the grounds looking out there for the opener?
Post by: pjb3 on March 19, 2015, 08:45:33 PM: Been a few times and had lots of snow, thinking this year not so much. Just looking at what I need to bring/drive

I been seeing the same. Toms are strutting and gobbling but hens don't pay them no mind.

I think the hens are already laying, but admittedly haven't been looking for nests. I see the Toms show up alone now for about a week at 11-12 daily. We have all our wildflowers out now which is 2 weeks early.
