I'm assuming this time of year they get all the moisture they need from their diet of various plants and insects? What about come July or August during a dry spell or late fall/winter? I've never seen a turkey actually drink. Anyone know?

Turkeys require water daily and hens will nest no farther then a 1/4 mile from a reliable water source.

We saw most of our birds within a few hundred yards of water this spring. It's been very dry here and they do need it daily.
