Tractor supply doesn’t have a turkey mix. We carry two different 50lb bags of scratch grains for chickens. But I’m sure it would work for turkeys as well.

Wild bird seed mix from Walmart or any where works. Also sunflower seeds. Or left over fall food plot seed. I have found that small grains work better, and deer will eat corn and cracked corn before the turkeys get a chance

I've found on my land that you can't just load up an area and magically make them use it like deer will do. You pretty much have to know the areas they like and then use those areas. They seem to eat anything. And february and march the deer will literally eat anything you put out for the turkeys. I've had to use corn feeders as decoys to try to keep the deer away from the turkey feed. I got to where i was using feed wheat, rye it didn't matter the deer still killed it even when i have it scattered in the woods. Almost makes it pointless for me because i have never been able to get them consistently in one spot for a long period of time.

But turkeys are weird and my turkeys are very weird.

Don't let him lie to y'all. He uses milo


Carrying a gun isn't comfortable; but at times it is comforting
