What eats turkey eggs???

Recommended Posts

Found a Turkey nest a couple weeks ago and set a cam on it with the kids to see if we could get some pics of some chicks. I was surprised by the pictures I got today. This squirrel ate all the eggs befor the foxes could get to them.post-2457-0-31005200-1403396160_thumb.jpgpost-2457-0-97899000-1403396263_thumb.jpgpost-2457-0-51491700-1403396442_thumb.jpgpost-2457-0-01224800-1403396515_thumb.jpg

Even more reason to shoot those yapping squirrels :-) looks like I'll have to do some damage control in my turkey spots

Looks like a rock squirrel. I lost quite a few baby chicks (chickens) to them before I figured out what was taking them. Watched one drag a small bull snake across a road one day. They can get really nasty.

Cool pictures.

Most interesting. For more such surprises check out this site. I found this interesting piece when I was looking for info on deer eating quail eggs.
