Tom or hen?

[CrysDalzell]

Hey there, I have an 18 week old Royal Palm/Lavender cross turkey and I am trying to figure out if Gloria (super vocal when little, and dramatic like the Hippo, Gloria, from Madagascar) is a tom or hen. Gloria has *postured* when I introduced to my chickens, after a 6 week quarantine, but hasn't since. Gloria doesn't gobble but chirps and barks. High pitched chirp, chirp, chirp, then 2 lower barks. Randomly hisses at my mom, and is super chill.

The crockpot pics are from having to soak feet , pretty sure Glor had avian pox, it's mostly healed. (No other birds had it, thinking mosquitoes)

Opinions?

When posting images for determining the sex of a turkey, post a full front shot, a full side shot and a picture taken from above and behind showing the back of the neck and top of the head.
