Wild Turkey Field Dressing
Recipes for wild turkey field dressing with a picture or a photo can be found in cooking books.
In spite of a high mortality rate of chicks and about a half of nests being destroyed by predators, these birds are common throughout their range. They are an important part of the food chain of their habitats. Raccoons, skunks, foxes, coyotes, opossums, crows, eagles and snakes feed on their eggs and chicks. These birds have a high reproductive potential. Their clutches are large, consisting of up to 18 eggs. Only the best males can breed, thus improving the gene pool of the species. If the nest is destroyed, the hen can breed again and make a second clutch. Unsuccessful hens unite in separate flocks and are the first to mate in spring.

Wild Turkey Field Dressing -

This species is widely spread in the eastern part of the USA. In winter, some of these birds migrate to the southern states, such as Texas, Arizona and Florida, and Mexico because food becomes scarce in their winter habitat. Being opportunistic feeders, these birds are able to consume a variety of vegetable matter and insects. In some areas, they are considered pests for crops and their numbers are controlled.
