Just had a hen and 4 small chicks feed through the back yard. Camera battery was dead so no pictures. Chicks are very small and just couple days old. Young small hen to so 2017 hatch should be OK as we had decent weather.

Guy I hunt on said he had 12 poults walk thru his yard 3 weeks ago and only 11 made it out, thanks to his dog. Oh well you cant save all of them. Looks like another good hatch year down here.

Went down to water my cattle today and I thought I kicked up a covey of quail. But it was a hen turkey and 8-10 chicks about the size of quail. The chicks flew up into the trees. That was neat.
