I am not a turkey guy, but I still read a lot about them. It seems a number of things have considerable and immediate effect on bird population. Low hatching season, habitat destruction, predation, etc. are readily apparent, but I heard about something that I would like for you experts to comment on.
I have heard that in some cases when corn is put out, it sometimes grows a type of harmful mold. This mold, when ingested by the turkeys, causes thin shelled eggs that often break before hatching. I know that a whole lot of people around here put out corn. Is this a serious issue?
