Gizzard Stones

[spurred63]

Found out before this season that some hunters save the gizzard stones from the turkeys they've killed. Thought I would share this with those members that might not be aware of this. I saved mine from the the birds I took this year and put them in a small jar. Pretty Cool! Wish I would have thought about saving them over the years.

Yes, I've seen where some guys have whole mason jars full

Some places it might take 40 birds to fill a quart jar and in some mountain terrain 15-20 birds could fill one.  I like to keep them individually until seasons end, then add them to larger jars based on subspecies. What the Merriam lacks in gobble he can make up in stones.

This is something I started doing this year and wished I'd been saving the whole time!  I keep mine in a glass wild Turkey whiskey bottle.

 I use mine to surround my hot tub. Makes for a nice soft, good looking area around our 12'X12' hot tub. Lay brown fabric down before laying the stones. In case someone slips you don't see the bare spot quite as bad.

I used to store mine in Wild Turkey 101 barrels, if anyone wants some I have 10 or so barrels I may part with for a price for a gate price. You'll have to pick up here, I am not shipping.

I tried posting picture even after I reduced the file, still had issues.

Thats kind of TMI, but at least you don't have a small gizzard with gaul stones

   Took some Gobblers in the " Black Dirt" area of New York  and in addition to the Gizzard Stones- the Crop was chock full of Onion Seeds. Onion is king in this area as a Crop.
