I just chatted with the game department today. My beaf was about the locals feeding "Wild Turkey's"
They say It's legal to do soo.. hum :bdid:
I ask when the next council meeting is? No answer..
Then I had suggested to just go knock on these people's doors, educate them then try to buy a pair of Turkey's from them? hum i really see they think they are someones escaped farm birds..
Soo now I'm Farmer Jane wanting a few birds. Let me see IF these Dumn asses fall for it...
I will pay them then turn them in. as Anounomusly :yike:
I just want to get My Thanksgiving bird, first time in GMU 272 to get a Fall Turkey! :yeah:

Or just go lose a few games of pool/darts at local watering hole.
.
Someone will give you access to an easy bird.
.
Or...
Go hunt one.

turkey ran up and gobbled it all up,
am I illegally feeding turkey?

Or you could try to be a good neighbor and actually get to know them.
Trying to entrap them makes zero sense.
Don't be a turkey Karen.

I threw out some scratch grains for my chickens,
turkey ran up and gobbled it all up,

You need to put out more chum!!!! I have about 200
Pasture maggots every day just like you have.
Yesterday I was puttering around and had the shop door open. When I walked around front there was half a dozen of the looking around just inside the door. They don't even run. So I release the blonde certified turkie removal device. Then they go everywhere but straight. 😁😁😁
She puts them over the fence and comes back so proud of her self.

We need pictures or videos of this “blonde certified turkie removal device” in action to confirm no “illegal” methods were used in This turkey eradication post!
The only blond in my house is my wife (I think?) but she changes that with every mood swing.
Beside I think I know which turkey she would want to remove!

As far as the locals way of thinking goes in some cases, would you rather have turkey finished with ticks, hoppers, and stink bugs ?, or corn..... :drool:

pretty hard to follow, I guess I wasn't aware that the wdfw had a council??GMAC? Or does she mean the Commission? No one knows.

Soo Your all takin' TURKEY here, THIS IS NOT A JOKE, :hello:
It's a real issue in my area near south Banks Lake, (yes there IS desert Merriam's here!) like the other poster said "Shot a bird FULL of Cracked corn!"
Hmm that means they chowed tuff! Feeding the chickens and such! Like a Coyote or a Bear it the SAME THING. Cat food on the porch and such.... :bdid:
Farm scatter is different, it's on-the-ground from harvesting of a Combine...
We had a sign posted in our neighborhood saying with an RCW code "put one's Garbage cans locked up til' the day of collection". Take down bird feeders, cat, dog foods from outside...
We are unknowingly attracting, feeding the wildlife....
Look this up, do one's homework, look in your yard, acrage.... :IBCOOL:

Cage trap with corn leading into it and past the triggering mechanism = turkey on the table if you really want one of those tough as shoe leather birds. IMO only thing are good for is their feathers as predator decoysThem turkeys aren't that bad to eat.
I take the breast ,strip it out,beat the Heck out of it with a meat hammer ,till it's almost falling apart.
Then I make a almost thin gravy out of water and flour.
Then a dry mix of flour and seasoning.
The strips go into gravy mix ,then container with lid for dry mix flour,shake it like your life depends on it.
Drop those strips into hot oil in the frying pan.
So gooood!!!!.

Agreed some of the best tasting is wild turkey. I strip them, marinate over night and make wild turkey jalepeno poppers. All in the way you cook it like any other wild game.Cage trap with corn leading into it and past the triggering mechanism = turkey on the table if you really want one of those tough as shoe leather birds.
