There is no way to accurately sex your poult at this time. Approximately 3 months old is usually the youngest age that turkeys can be sexed from photos.I have a turkey and I don't know what gender it is.

I have other poultry but not turkeys I have chickens but when my turkey grows up it will be with a goat and a pot belly pig do you think that's fine?There is no way to accurately sex your poult at this time.

By the time the poult is 6 months old you should be able to sex the turkey from the size of its snood. The snood is the bump that you are referring to.
I hope this is not your only poult as they are very social and should be raised with others of their own kind.
It may or may not mean anything. People have had the young strutters turn out to be either hens ir toms. At that age, it is simply a sign of dominance.I've heard that some times a poult will "strut" in the brooder. Is that an indicator or gender or is that something they'll just do?
No, if this is to be a pet, it needs other turkeys for companionship. If it is going to be processed for food then it is a different story.I have other poultry but not turkeys I have chickens but when my turkey grows up it will be with a goat and a pot belly pig do you think that's fine?
