Here is a pic of my bird. The beard had quite a bit of rot too it. Thinking because of the hard winter they have gone through. Ended up being around 2" spurs are just under 1" with the tips broke off and the bird only weighed 16 lbs. Smallest full grown tom I have ever taken and I am just as if not more than proud of him as any of the others I have taken. Prepped the fan for mounting last night.
