My white broad breast turkey and bronze are 10 weeks old. They spent all their time out in the run. A week ago, I put four 6-week old royal palms in with them, and let them mingle after a few days. Occasionally they would get annoyed at the youngsters and chase them back into the coop but now the younger poults are out in the run unmolested. At the same time, my huge white has started to keep inside the coop all day. He looks fine, but normally he would be outside. I'm wondering if something is wrong with him or if he just wants to keep apart from the others because they are annoying.

Please post a separate pic of your Broad Breasted White.

I can't really tell from this image but don't think your white is a tom.
