Check your state regulations. Here the regulations state that any wild turkeys and any wild turkey hybrids belong to the state.I lost my gobbler last fall but the we had an eastern hill er start courting my hen about 2 months ago. She disappeared for about a week and we started searching the property. We found her on 11 eggs, we are hoping they are fertile.
She is now in the hen house in her own little brooder box safe from predators.
