Hello everyone, I hope your day is going fantastic. I could use a little help, this is Winston my Turkey,I got him/her Saturday and I've never raised turkeys before and no one around me has either so we are all a little clueless. Does anyone know what gender they are? I tried to do an up close picture of the chest because I read where the males will have a beard.. any other tips that you guys know to raising turkeys would be greatly appreciated as well. Thank you !

looks like a bronze jake (boy) to me.. but @R2elk is more knowledgeable
There is only one breed in the APA http://www.amerpoultryassn.com/waterfowl.htm
Porters turkeys has pics of a ton of color varieties that are not recognized by APA https://www.porterturkeys.com/phenotypesandgenotypes.htm

The very last comment on thAt post someone provided pictures of the differences and I seemingly matched him more with the boy features ? But I haven't heard him gobble or strut but then some say theirs didn't start doing that until 6 months. Plus apparently females can have beards sometimes as Well... I know I'll found out soon but its driving me crazy !

Everyone who has looked at him even in person say their pretty sure he is a boy but it's so hard with turkeys
