Here is a pic from google of an Eastern. I still think it is an Eastern.
I would agree but the wings don't look right for eastern to me. The Easterns have the barred at the wing tip...that guy doesn't. Maybe a mix breed...

Eastern Wild turkeys don't have a white tail tip like that and have reddish legs. That guy looks like a standard bronze (I say guy because of the bright red head and fat snood).

It is an eastern turkey jake. And yes a hen can also grow a beard. I hunt turkeys and shot a hen that had a 7 inch beard. My user name is Callemin which means call them in.... as in turkeys.
