Shot one saturday morning. Thought it was a gobbler, about a seven to eight inch beard, didn't measure it. I know you can tell the difference between gobblers and hens by the head and body color and size and so forth, but it was on a ridge above me and you couldn't tell much about the color of her I just saw beard and killed her. Any ways, have any one ever heard of them being hamaphrodytes? I have heard from many people that they were, but when I field gutted her I couldn't find any nuts in her, I do not know what the ovarys look like, but I did find her egg polyps.
