hi,
i'm new to turkey hunting.. only hunted maybe a year. went out and did some scoutin

just wondering if any one can identify if they are male or female.

Number one looks like hen a hen feather because of the brown tips, Number 2 looks like a gobbler feather. I am asuuming you are hunting easterns the gobblers tips will tend to be more black giving the gobbler an over all black apperance.

I Dont Think You Can Tell With Them Ones...Ive Shot Toms With Thos Same Looking Ones...And Ive Seen Dead Hens With Em.

Well thnx for your help

Were's Adrian when you need him

If the feathers came from the body/breast...Male turkeys will have a black edge, and females have brown/buff/lighter colored edges.

There is individual variation and perhaps some areas where a given population of tutkeys will not adhere to the "rule", but it is a standard technique used by wildlife biologists.

BUT...it kinda looks like those feathers mighta come off the back of a turkey. Hard to tell 'cause we can't see the whole shaft of the feather.
