Are my turkeys male or female?

Hi these are my 5 month old babies. I'm still in the dark as to what sex they are (and what breed). They don't gobble. They have some feathers on their heads. They

both puff up like males when they get angry, the white one does this alot lately. They've started fighting each other. The white one has the beginnings of a beard. Both are super friendly and cuddly

How old are they?

They are the breed Turkey. The dark one appears to be a Bronze hen. The White one appears to be a heritage variety. Depending on its age, it may be a young tom. Age is the deciding factor. Some toms don't come into their full baldness and their huge snood until at least 6 months old.

On the other hand, hens can have beards and can and do strut just like a tom.

While unlikely, the white one may still turn out to be a male. Currently it looks like it may be a hen but some males can be very late developers.

The bronze is a hen and the white one is prob male but you might just have to wait and see.
Ps. they don't gobble till 6 mo old so you should not be hearing any gobbling from them yet.
