Default White Hen is back, and brought a friend.

The white hen is in the background. Only problem is that she brought some unwanted friends. I am gonna kill this dog this spring!

Hey Ridge Runner, that obviously isn't a "smoke phase" Hen, is it an actual WILD bird?

I've never seen a true WHITE wild turkey... could it be a true albino or simply a domestic cross ???

I would imagine it is albino, the head looks very pink. Also, it is impossible for White Domestic birds to breed, unless AI'ed.

Nice pic.

I would be taking that yote out soon, along with any friends he may have.

My buddy and I once called in a white albino hen and got it on film back in the 80s. That was fun. I've seen several smoke-phase gobblers but never managed to kill one.
