Questionable Tom???

I have White Holland hen that has a beard. I assume she's a hen, she's displayed only a couple of times and we've had her almost a year, but she has never gobbled.

We thought we had two hens and a tom. The tom started displaying much much earlier and gobbled, he also had a longer snood and more colorful head. This "girl" has a short snood, rarely displays, never gobbles, and just has a pinkish/red head.

MissPrissy~ How do you tell a tom from a hen in Royal Palms?

Welp.... Jack came through after all. I spose he was a slow maturer.
Sunday I had a fellow deliver a load of wood and he wanted to go over and look at the turkeys. Jack was proudly fanning and dragging his wings putting at the BR Tom in the next pen. Jill, his mate, seemed so proud of him.

I was relieved that we actually did get a pair after all.
Thanks to all for their input.
