How Long Does It Take To Tell A Female Turkey From A Male?

These turkey are June Hatch. Male head is darker red, larger snood.

Note the male is in the front of a hen.

Thank you very much! Based on those pictures, I would say that I have three females.

Too bad you are not near me. I would trade a gobbler for a hen.

Well...I am having doubts again. Two of the turkeys are now looking like they may be males afterall. I think that I will try and get a picture tomorrow to see what you all think!
