Are we still sure this is a hen?

[casportpony]

Yes. Exactly the same age.

Then I change my mind, it's a hen.

I'm still holding on tom.

$1,000?! You must be pretty confident!
I don't know how to sex turkeys but this thread is helping me learn!

I have quite a few hens that had me thinking tom for the longest time. That's definitely a hen in question.

Okay guys - here’s the latest pictures. @R2elk and @TurkeyTimes still thinking hen right?

No beard, no tom. It's a confusing one for sure.

Haha. You're funny. But she doesn't have any white tipped feathers on her chest and her snood is starting to extend D past her beak. And oh yeah... I have a $1,000 on it so I'm a bit nervous when she acts all testosterone filled like she did today. She's a stinker for sure.... Wait... What was I talking about...?!? I'm confused!?

It may be the lighting but I am not seeing the light colored lower edges on the breast feathers anymore. It may well be a late developing tom.

I know @feedman77 had a late developing tom that was thought to be a hen for a long time.
