Feeding Wild Birds With Wild Turkey Quills
One of the most popular wild bird foods around is the leopard honey turkey. Wild Turkeys feed on insects and other plant-based foods such as fruits, seeds and vegetables. You may see many wild turkeys around your area feeding on the ground, but the only way to tell if they are Turkeys is to check out their beaks for the white fuzz that indicates a Honey Turkey. If you catch a Honey Turkey feeder then you will know the difference!
Honey Turkeys is very easy to keep and can live in any number of different environments. They will thrive in a large open area with access to a variety of different food sources. They can even be an effective competitor in the food chain, but they don’t do well in a confined space. If you are considering adding a Turkey to your current turkey feeders, then you may want to consider purchasing a turkey-feeder combo set. These combos include a top-feeding turkey feeder with two different sized wild turkeys.
A leopard honey turkey is not hard to make. The best part about these birds is that you can find them just about anywhere. Some of the places you may not think to look for these wild birds are at feeders stores or local nurseries. If you purchase a turkey from a feeder store or nursery, you should check the bird out very carefully before buying it as some species breeders will sell birds that are bred to lay eggs, not wild born. If you are planning on buying a wild caught turkey from a wild bird store or breeder then you should ask to see the birds in person to ensure they are truly wild.
