Rio Grande Gobblers

Few birds rival the showmanship of a strutting gobbler. They have a thundering gobble, they will fan their tail feathers and arch their wings in hopes of attracting the attention hens who are ready to breed.

They have sharp spurs on the back of their legs which they use to fight off rivals. They have a long beard which unlike most other feathers do not molt every year. They are wary and have outstanding eyesight. A hunter must be on his game if he expects to takes an old tom.

A Unique Species

The Rio Grande's Turkey's habitat includes brushy areas close to streams, rivers or mesquite. It generally favors country that is more open than the wooded area favored by the Eastern species. They are gregarious and somewhat nomadic. They often have different summer and winter ranges. It is common for them to form large flocks of several hundred birds in the winter. Occasionally they will travel several miles from their winter roost sites to its nesting areas. Since they live in areas that normally do not have many roosting trees, they often roost in the same tree which makes them a little easier to hunt.

Adult males may weigh from 17 to 21 pounds and adult hens may weigh from 8 to 11 pounds. Adult gobblers can stand up to 40" tall and the females may stand up to 30" tall when they are at full alert. The poults are born very small and only weigh only about 2 ounces.
