What kind of turkeys are these?

I agree on the Calico. Turkeys don’t “blend” traits like chickens. They tend to grab recessive and dominant traits and make varieties. If I bred my RP to a Bronze for instance, I would not get a RP with bronze sprinkled in. I would get a Semi Bronze Semi Gray. They would look more like a Bronze but nothing like an RP

Your hen is a mottled black or brown but i can’t tell how black or brown she is in the photo. She is pretty. The genes from this pair will likely give you all different types of colorings in your poults based on what their genetics date back tO.
 
At first glance I would say the tom is a sweetgrass. There isnt enough red body coloring to be a calico. Although something is slightly amiss. The hen is a mottled black. Due to the genetics, their offspring has a wide array of possibilities.
