Title: Hogs
Post by: okgobbler on March 30, 2011, 03:49:10 PM
Do you guys know if the feral hogs in your area eat your turkey eggs?  Over the past few years, we have noticed fewer and fewer turkeys and figured it was probably because of the hogs.  What do you guys think?

Feral hogs eat everything, including eggs and other hogs (if they're dead)

Hogs will eat anything and everything - if it doesn't move fast enough!  :icon_thumright:

I do know for a fact that a turkey load will kill 100lb+ sow.  We usually see a bunch of them during turkey season.

Hogs will eat everything.  Eggs if they can find them and fawns if they happen upon them.
