Title: Toms with jenny hens?
Post by: wisconsinteacher on May 25, 2018, 11:58:07 AM
I have 2 toms with 2 hens.  I think they are jenny hens and are not breeding or nesting.  The 4 of them roost together and never leave each other.  How do I kill them!!!

Try to sound like another Jenny or pick a fight with the hens and hope they drag those pedophile toms right in behind.  Good luck!

If there that tight of a group and you know were they  roost try and scatter  them right at daylight before flydown. I don't mean flush them all in the same direction I mean separate the hens from the gobblers or better yet all 4 separated. Then you should have a good chance of calling a gobbler in. I once had two gobblers that would not respond to hen calls but ran off a gobbler I was working more than once. I finally roosted them one on each side of an old grown up fence row I intentionally walked right at one gobbler until he flushed and sat down gave a few gobbler clucks and killed the other gobbler 10 min later. The next morning I found and killed the second gobbler on the same fencerow  they were as close to identical as a turkey could be more than likely two year olds from the same nest that stuck together. They  did not seem interested in hens but ganging  up on other gobblers.
