RE: Bearded Hen
Well....Unfortunately the local chapter of Texas Parks and Wildlife was not as nearly curious about this bird as I was!They basically told me it had to be a gobbler if it had spurs, and refuse to look at the bird.
They said it could possibly be a hen but would be rare be nothing to get that excited about.
I will skin the bird today and plan a breast/ fantail mount.
Thanks for all your comments on my listing!!
