About 10 years ago we finially started getting some wild Turkey up here. One local farmer thought he would help them flurish by buying some wild turk chicks raising them and releasing them. They bread in fine with the other turkeys for a couple years then all of a sudden all these off colored birds showing up. Well long story short, the warden got sick of trying to pick off all the grey ones they finially shot the whole damn flock! They are inbread and are known for carrying disease. Things may be different down south but if "grey" turks start showing up around here. The DNR comes a shooting, game over start over. It suck but it is a fact.
