Dove Weed?

doves like weed

It is like everything else, there are 2 or 3 different sub-species of croton, and in wetter areas, it is going to look different than in areas that aren't getting any or much rain.

THATS WHAT I CALL GOAT WEED OR DOVE WEED

tch just remember that you were bumming off my pack that night, has your glaucoma anyways

Thanks Ya'll,

I know what to keep an eye out for now.

But only one person has expressed an opinion about whether it is an important factor in having birds in an area or not. Like will it draw birds on its own or does it need to be combined with a milo or sunflower field.

It will draw birds in on its own. Next time you clean a dove, check its crop, if it is full of little black seeds that look like real coarse ground black pepper, that is the seeds from dove weed.

We have a 2 acre spot that is all dove weed and grass burrs on our lease. We don't have any sunflowers. We find the dove in that patch more so as the season goes on. I think it is not mature yet at the start of dove season. That is just my opinion though.

I got that stuff all over my lease. Guess thats why the dove hunting is so good. I guess I need to plant some deer weed to make the deer hunting better. I wonder why they call it goat weed my goats won't eat the stinkin stuff.

It is actually more popular with Quail... Doves will ocassionaly smoke it...I mean eat it... But since the stuff grows wild... any large sunflower, milo, or wheat field will give you a better chance to whack doves...When dove hunting, pull the crowl sack out of your first few birds and look at what they have been feeding on... Then match your field location to the specific crop they are munching...

Good advice!

Thanks
