I also think that when you start eating grasshoppers, you may have gone too far..

They're a great source of protein.

Looks interesting and I wish I could watch all of it, but my A.D.D. kicked in about the three minute mark.

I watched the whole thing. I can relate. As somebody who has raised several clutches of turkeys I've went thru almost everything he talked about. At the end when he was fighting with turkey boy some of you might have related it to my recent bought with Buddy, my gobbler. That guy just needed to learn a roundhouse kick. The only thing I didn't like about the video was the calling, by humans. I just wanted to hear real turkeys. Great stuff and enjoyed it immensely.

I thought of you several times throughout the video, but especially when they fought.

I watched it today to. Pretty neat.

I wish I could take the scene of the woods at the 24 minute mark and make a big painted mural of it on my wall.

Just got finished watching it and REALLY enjoyed it.
I'm hearing impaired and couldn't catch what he said when he lost and was burring the two turkeys together.

The photography was awesome!!!  That would be tough losing all the birds, but then again, they were wild to begin with.
