Report turkey brood observations until Aug. 31
DNR’s turkey brood survey is at the halfway point. So far, we’ve received 1,908 observations. To reach our goal of 3,000, we need your support.
If you’ve already reported an observation this year, thank you, and please keep reporting. Haven’t reported yet? Reporting observations of turkey hens with and without poults (young turkeys) provides meaningful data for DNR to track and manage populations around the state.
DNR appreciates your help supporting wild turkey populations in Indiana.1

I’ve never had anything to report before, just wondering if it goes on a map somewhere.

Fingers crossed here......a hen and 8 poults (pretty small) venture out of the beans into the yard 2-3 times a week and just down the road there are 3 hens with probably 12-15 poults that are half again bigger than the ones in my yard.

I put a 2 day old dead woodchuck belly up in a plowed field and I thought I saw 6 turkeys around it less than an hour later. Well, their heads WERE bald, but they weren't turkeys!
Conibear 220 strikes again!

3 hens and 18 poults have been making regulau visits to my yard. I think they are down 4 since I was able to get a good count. Now it is really getting hard to get any near an accurate count. Those poults are about 1/2 the size of the hens.

Yesterday morn at mt sons house, he says that they usually come through the front yard between 7-7:30 every eve, but they came through the back of the barn for some reason. The lead hen is bearded, and he says she is a bossy thing. He has reported them earlier in the summer. He says about half are this year's poults.
