Dirty Bird Dove & Quail Mix

Dirty Bird is a unique blend of plant varieties designed to provide cover, nesting and high levels of available food from summer through winter. It is the perfect mix to add to your hunting property or habitat plan!
Comprised of two varieties of millet, sunflower, sorghum and soybeans
A fantastic mix for doves, upland birds, turkey, and deer
Will provide your property a beautiful mix of plants to offer cover and food while improving the habitat on your property
Help improve your overall habitat in a variety of ways: to attract doves, attract and hunt pheasants, offer readily available food for your turkeys or break-up food plots with these taller plants to help offer food and manipulate deer movement through your plots
Planting seasons can vary depending on location, but planting needs to wait until after last frost in the spring
Plant maturity varies from plant to plant and is between 70-110 days.
The seed heads from the sunflower, millet and sorghum can all provide critical food when the weather gets bad during the winter months
We love using this mix to "break up" food plots or create "food plot architecture" because it breaks up sight lines, provides a security blanket and also offers food for your deer to browse on as they move through your plots.
