Default RE: Bearded Hen

This bird was with nothing but hens. In Texas in the fall months all the hens travel together as well as do the gobblers. I was looking just to kill one hen out of the twenty five or thirty birds that came out around the feed pen when I saw this bird which in color and size appeared to be a really good bearded hen.

I could very well be wrong here and I am going to take this bird to the Texas Parks and Wildlife office this afternoon to see if they can tell me if it is a hen or a gobbler.

I am a deer hunter by trade and I do a little turky calling from time to time and I am no expert by far when it comes to wild turkeys. Ihave never seen hens and gobblers traveling together in the fall, especially that many hens together with just one gobbler.

Once I have confirmed the birds sex I will post the listing.

Thanks for your comments Adrian.
