That's too funny!! He got tired of you going out there and asking him what he was....by goodness he was gonna show you!

They are characters!!

lol -- I'm just amazed how long it took him! About time... I still need that picture to share. He looks very handsome....I guess he's making up for being a late bloomer.

If you're in an area where wild turkeys are present, you're gonna have a blast come spring time when all the wild males and females are about! Don't be surprised to find some wild turkeys lurking around in the morning near where you keep him

Before I butchered my males, I could go out in the morning and see half a dozen hens nearby.

Yes, I heard them out there last year...so I know they come around in the fields in the back often! Lol, I bet he'll drive the ladies wild.

Here are the glamor shots I promised...
look at that snood!

He's very proud, too...always strutting. And he gobbles every time my rooster crows, lol!

(I just tossed fresh hay in there and he was hard to miss, lol.)

I just looked at the first post photos....he sure has grown up! Awww....

He's very handsome. That's quite a snood!

 

[chicks4kids]

Very beautiful color on his face! He's obviously happy and proud! Did you name him now??

 

[CatJane0x0]

A strange name I know, but I called him/her Marro for some wacky reason...it suits either gender.

I was so sure I had a lady, but then I would completely figure the opposite from time to time. It is a relief to finally know!

I still think it's a boy
