Hey guys, I'm new here so I apologize if I broke any rules here I didn't see. I know you guys probably see this a lot, but I figure you guys are experts at this point I have a royal palm turkey though that I am trying to get an idea of sex. I have 7 actually, but the other 6 are quite a bit younger than this particular one. I have only sexed a turkey when they are on the business end of a 12 gauge during a spring turkey hunt, so by then its easy work, but this is my first time owning turkeys as pets (for food/pet). Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!
Edit:
The snood is smaller at the moment, when its with the other chicks it tends to get almost a little swollen looking/kind of looks like it wants to start to fall to the side a bit. He/She also struts pretty hard, but I have seen Hens come into my calls that would mostly strut with some of the toms. I haven't heard it attempt a gobble, but my wife swears she has
2nd Edit:
He/She is probably around the 3-4 months old mark, I think closer to 3
