I will debate you on that. Turkeys are really dumb. They are just really paranoid. They are genetically programmed to do certain things. They all hatch the same, fly at the same age, breed exactly the same, and react the same to most stimuli. They are little computers. They don't have the ability to care about if someone called to them the day before.

You really think pressure has no effect on turkeys and their behavior?

all turkeys are definitely not the same

you can see that when there is more than one gobbler in a field (some of them are likely born from same clutch) seems all the hens want that ONE bird

there is something there making that gobbler more appealing than the others even though his twins may be right beside him but the hens dont have anything to do with them

pressure absolutely messes with the way a bird acts. a deer or elk can go nocturnal when pressure is high (and they do), a turkey cant
