I have 3 bbw. They are 3 months almost 1 week old. They all seem to act the same and hang their wings and strut on the hot days. I am wondering the sex so I know the best way to do this. I have been growing them slower because I want to have one for turkey day and I am a bit ahead of schedule. This is my first time with meat turkeys so im learning. These guys are very social and could eat non stop if i left it out for them. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I think toms. We just started with 4 of these this year, they are now 2 months old. We have 1 girl and the only reason we know is because of the large difference in size, her wattles/gobbler is lighter and smaller. She hasn't strut any, but my understanding is that young ladies may strut at first, so that's not a for sure.
Our boys are larger than our almost ready meat chickens already.
We have been feeding regular broiler ration (20% protein) you could lower the protein on what you have by mixing in like oats. You just can't do layer unless they are laying eggs because of the calcium.
We have enjoyed ours so far! They are interesting little guys for sure!
