Bearded ladies

Is it legal to shoot bearded hens in your state? Not ethics or would you do it. South Carolina does NOT allow hens of any description. We do not have a fall season.

Circus people would probally get pissed off.Seriously though In Va. we have a spring Gobbler season and a fall turkey season.Fall you can shoot a hen.

Here in Florida you can harvest either sex during archery and fall season, toms and bearded hens during the spring; although some WMA have their own regulations that override state regs.

I'm in sc too but I've heard that a few years ago you could shoot bearded hens in sc.. Out of curiosity, do you know if this is accurate?

You can shoot any bearded bird here. Last year filming a hunt I was concentrating on a gobbler and didn't catch the bearded hen until I played the video back. Here's some video of the hen.
