RE: Turkey Questions
Generally most toms have a red white or blue head. Most mature toms have some type of beard. Some jakes have very small beards. Cant say whether it was a tom or not. The toms and Jakes are generally bigger than a hen. Could you see if it had spurs. Thats a tell tale sign thats a Tom or Jake. Jakes have very small spurs but they can be seen. Turkeys do winter in different areas. Ive seen this many times.
