RE: Question for you turkey experts.....

While I'm no expert,all turkeys will "MOLT" after the mating seasons. They will also grow a complete set of new feathersbefore the comming fall and winter. My Taxidermist always told me, if you want an awesome looking "flying gobbler mount", be sure totake a Fall gobbler!!
They will have a complete set of new feathers by then and make the mount look that much more awesome on the wall without broken wing tips, etc.
