Turkey female or male

[ChickenDog0421]

Hi everyone! I’m new to raising turkeys so I don’t know anything about how to tell gender. I have one turkey and im curious to know wether she’s a girl or a boy. I say she cause I’m hoping it’s a she. She’s about 12 weeks old almost 13! I haven’t seen her strut before and she makes like a chirping noise. Here are some pictures of my lovely Turk

Any help and advice on her gender is greatly appreciated thank you!

Looks like you have a Chocolate hen. I very strongly recommend that you get her some turkey friends. Turkeys are very sociable and do best when there are other turkeys to socialize with.

Awesome thank you so much! We have about 42 chickens that she is grouped with. When I got her she was the only turkey left at the farm store and that’s why I picked her up. The people there said she would be fine chickens but if it’s highly recommended for her to be with other turkeys I might get some friends for her
