My Awesome turkey is a......boy or girl?

Guess it's time to find her a mate!

I vote girl too! I have a hen and a tom both about the same age. My hen has a fuzzier head (feathers going up it), no snood, slightly smaller dewlap. My tom has a big snood by now (he'll be a year in May), that hangs over his beak, he fluffs out all the time (especially for my hen! lol), and he gobbles all the time. Whenever there's a loud noise, he's gobbling at it like it offended him. My hen will occasionally fluff up, but it's becoming less and less. When my tom first started "dancing" for her, he was pretty persistent and she reacted to that a couple times by fluffing up with him haha but now she's laying (I keep their coop nice and warm all night) and she seems to be accepting the persistent favor of my Tom more :)
