They were to nervous to stick around much. She was only outside a couple minutes tops and the house blocked the wind for her. Now the first video was taken by the older daughter (little deadeye) and she was afraid of the birds attacking which is why she ran when they gobbled. That another story involving a fishing trip and the canada geese with little ones. She hate geese now.
Those birds must have been pen raised and released. There are no turkey north of I-70 in Indiana much. They had been hitting a bird feeder across the street a bit in the last few days and are the same 5 birds I posted photos of the other week.
They came right in to the Primos call and started eating our bird food. The next door neighbor has a pond with a bubbler and they came from the pond area. I got them in sight before the snows a few weeks ago but today they came right up,
One took a piece of bread from her hand. All the others would not even come in close. I could have killed one with a snow shovel.

Great videos ! I have to think those were pen raised birds. I have turkeys that run through my back yard, but they are a whole lot spookier than those were. You can't get anywhere near them.

They have to be pen raised. There are no wild turkeys in the area. That is why I was surprised to see any.
These five should breed this spring (no turkey hunting in my county) and then those birds will be wild. I bet that who ever raised these 5 will raise more.
