What are my turkeys doing?

[Myah1011]

I’m guessing this is a dominance thing, but what exactly are they doing?

Huh??? Almost looks like they are shaking hands. Calling a truce???or about to dance lol... Is there feed in that bag?? Or a nest they may be fighting over?? Unsure....but may be dominance...testing each other..I saw the duck coming up behind them...are the ducks always nice/playful with the turks??

Yes there is feed in the bag but they do this when food isn’t around as well, no nests are near them plus I would think that they are too young to fight over nests anyways since they are only around 3 months old, the ducks are tolerant of the, and they check them out every once and a while.

Taco. That's awesome..I had a old tom I named tostito.. like the chip...he was a rescue and loved tortilla chips. Anyway sometimes my grown females strut like they are boys. Confusing. Get ready if taco is a boy...Tom's are very very hateful when breeding. 1st time I saw it I felt bad for my girls...
