Do Turkeys change their color?
We have Merriam's here. I've noticed that the tom's head/neck area is much brighter red in the spring (should have had 2 today!!), while the toms in the fall are a more blueish than red.
Do they change color from spring to fall?
And is this because it is matting season? Or am I just nuts?
(Don't answer that)

Yes,Male turkeys heads change colors.
As they are walking around in front of you!
1 Minute they will have a cotton white head with blue and red mixture
Then they will change to just a bright red hed & neck!!
Its pretty cool..
