We bought them June 11th. They looked about 1 to 2 weeks old then. So they are about 3 months old.
That feed store orders from Privett Hatchery, and the accompanying poster shows only bronze and white, the non-heritage breeds. When I called to ask what we had just bought, they said "Bronze and White." But the white one sure isn't very white.
The bronze was displaying today, and his snood never really got much longer than you see in his photo at the bottom. Maybe 50% longer if even that. He did turn a little blue. When he was displaying, the white didn't display, as he had before. But both have the feathers on the back that look hacked off, and I read that was a way to tell they were boys. How can I tell????
Every time I look at white turkeys snood, it looks like in the photo. He hasn't postured in my presence since the 'incident', so I don't know if it will elongate or not.
