re: Mississippi wildlife commissioner charged with baiting turkeys... with crickets.

Guess you would need to build a large cricket corral to keep them in one spot?

Nope those farm raised crickets don't move to far from where they are scattered.....


much like the practice of sinking sacks of cut sweet potatoes for improving a duck hole -

funny I saw some one cleaning a turkey at sherburne a few years back it had a bucnh of those non native crickets in his gullet... The farm raised ones look different...

but unlike corn they can't be seen from a drone -


like getting caught with "sweet potato water" someone had to turn him in.

I hear they last about 4-5 days and the turkeys will come back looking for them after that
