RE: How much do you think this turkey ways?
weight of a turkey is utterly useless. i dont even know why they use it in the scoring system. turkeys all weigh diffrent amounts. what if one has the flu and doesnt eat for a week? what if one eats high fat food all day and the other doesnt? what if one gets hit by a mac truck and looses all his feathers and wings?? they arent going to weigh alot!! and generally speaking the dominant birds loose weight by the end of the season anyways from mating and after winter period. i never understood weight...fat people get made fun of...fat turkeys are sought after? lol
anyways...your turkeys look good to me. good luck getting them killed!
