Is a 4 month old turkey to young to show?

I was just wondering because I would like to show at our local fair but I have never shown turkeys and I wasn't sure if they should be a certain a first. Thanks for any info!

Just assuming here that you are asking about showing in the breeding class.
What breed is it? Does it come close to the standard description?
Yes it'll be a little on the young side but do you really care? I would say pack him up and let people have a look.

Thanks for the reply. He's a blue slate and he is very close to the breed description. I will be bringing some chickens and a lot of people have told me there are hardly ever turkeys. I want to get this guy used to crowds because I was thinking about bringing him along when I do school talks and so on.
