Is this an albino wild turkey?

there are 2 of those at our deer lease in provencal, louisiana.

I saw a wild hen colored like this on my property just the other day too. I agree. Probably some domestic cross.

They definitely do, just like most albinos - they don't last too long

Looks like what hunters (like me!

) refer to as a rarely colored "smoke phase" hen turkey.

I googled it and it does look pretty close to that, doesnt it. I found a lot of reference to them, but I couldnt find a definition of what that means anywhere. Do you know what exactly that means?

From what I have found online, wild turkey populations occasionally produce 4 rare but not unknown color variations:
Black
Red
Smoke
Albino
