just an idea. befor there were decoys in the stores.I made one from styrofoam and put feathers on it.that was 30 years ago(I still have it)

you say OK right; but it look real to the eye from 10 yards away.I took styrofoam sheets layers and glued them togetherand cut it to shape,then took paper towels (the ones with fiber in them)cut into strips about 2" wide and wood glue ; wet the towels in the wood glue and layed them onto the form all over,when they dried I put another layer.untill I had three layers.then I spray painted itflat black. then I got a bunch of feathers,body and tail.feathers.I cut the fuzzy parts of the feathers off,so you have about 1/2 a feather.start at the tail,lay the tail feathers on the form dip the point of the feather into black oil paint (this sticks them to the body better than gule;hot glue may work,didn't have a hot glue gun when I did mine.)and lay it onto the body,lay another beside that one until you have a layer all the way around the body,over lap them just a little.( do the top and sides and let dry) then do the belly. when you have one layer , come back and lay another over that layer about 1/2 way up that one.(like they are on the real turkey body)do this all the way up the body and onto the neck,(use smaller feathers on the neck)
when I got this all done,I painted the head blue,got some eyes from a taxidermist supply and glued them in.I cut the beak from a real bird and glued it onto the face.

to start ; when I got the body made from the styrofoam,I put a metal rod into the body,(if you make it like a fork) push the fork into the body and then lay the towels over the fork it will stay in place. fiberglass rods work;if you can get one with a big end(or knot) on it,so it doesn't pull out.

when finished ; I took an old pair of camo pants and made a cover for it;with a strap to carry it with. it is not like those foldup ones.and you don't want some fool to shoot you.(I'm telling you it looks real)

it only cost you a little time and about $10.00 for the paint and styrofoam.I only used a pint of flat black paint and one can of spray black.

I have a new digital camera,as soon as I can get it working so I can post a pic. I will take one and post it for you.
