A century of Turkey talk 2000-2100.

I did not think about it. but you gave me a new perspective. Technically they are on the railing and not the deck.

I think I will keep that little nugget to myself Chaos. I will play that card in the future if I have too. No sense wasting a good trump card like that!

Thanks.

I will post pictures of Ginger. But I am sure you will all say Tom, The differences are so subtle I am not sure the camera will catch them. If he is a she, she is a large she. I would love to have a jersey buff hen. Maybe I am using wishful thinking on him.

Be sure to include a frontal shot of the breast feathers. At Ginger's age, the breast feathers will "tell the tale".

Ralph - the railing vs deck distinction may not fly Very interested to see the pics of Ginger so we can all share our "expertise". Hoping for a hen!

Memphis - shopping.... *shudder* Hope you survived

Beings I am not home, I cannot get a new picture, but here are some relatively recent ones of Ginger.

You are probably right, I have always thought tom until recently. The legs are small and thinner than my toms and the snood is so small.
It would be too good to be true if he was a she.

Yup, that's definitely a turkey.

I am still waiting for some descent on the prevailing opinion...

I've got a manly hen, maybe you do too!

Well Ralph - I'm going to vote for hen. That's some slim legs, small snood and tiny caruncles for a boy..... Although it might be workth asking how old is Ginger? I'll be the odd one out
