Acts like a tom... And the snood is already showing! Hens will also strut when around toms but not as aggressively as that little one!
Definitely appears to be a young tom. I have found it to be quite common among young domestic turkeys raised in a brooder. Every one of my young turkeys who displayed like this turned out to be a tom. While it is common for adult hens to display (strut), I have never seen hens do the display as youngsters. I also find that it is uncommon for my young turkeys to strut when I alone am present, but that they really put on a show when a visitor shows up to see them.
thank you we are pretty sure he is a boy now. I will have to post a updated video of him. He got seprated from his girl (we think she is a hen) and a dog and 2 kids got close to her. He started strutting really bad and turned beat red. It was funny but we did clam him down and get her out of my garden. LOL after we took pictures.
