Royal Palm Turkeys

Can anyone tell me the sex of these turkey poults? The larger one is from a different farm and is older. Sorry for the really crappy, blurry picture.

I believe the large one is a male. In the second picture, if you look at his legs, you can see very small spurs beginning to develop. How far apart in age are the turkeys?

2 or 3 weeks I believe.

I will take some better pictures tomorrow and add them. These were terrible.

Agree with PatrickRoo, the second one definitely looks like a Tom. The second picture came out nice and clear though.

I'm just worried that I'll have 4 toms lol.

I definitely understand that feeling. Boys seem to rule on our farm. Ugh.

Ok. I added more pictures but I have some very uncooperative birds. Thank you all for any help!

Third picture down on the left looks like a Tom, too.
