When Do Gobblers Start Gobbling?

It's not rare for birds to gobble during the late summer months. Some birds gobble year round. Warm days in January and other winter months will sometimes result in gobbling. There isn't a specific reason for these gobbles, but some individual turkeys are just more vocal than others.

What time do you start calling turkeys?

When To Call A Gobbler

In my view, the best times of the day are right off the roost, then again from about 8:30 to 9:30 when more hens start to leave the gobbler to go lay an egg, and again from about 11 until noon.

At what temperature do turkeys gobble?

Wind direction did not factor into gobbling activity, neither did relative humidity. The average daily temperature played a role in gobbling activity, as birds sounded off the most when the average daily temperature was between 60 and 69 degrees.
