I am going from the stats of the Biologists on brood counts ect.
Dry years are a disaster for chicks I can tell you that from the stats and first hand knowledge. Our wild turkey broods were starting to get hit real hard with the very dry conditions in the last few years.
As stated before: The chicks get moisture they need off the grasses in the AM. They do not go to the local pond and drink water ect. I am thinking humidity plays the bigger role in this rather then the temperature.
