Nope right were I can Hunt....You are right Bob Feathers on the Gobbler are Blonde like a Rio....Awesome

I have seen several gobblers (Eastern) that have the red tint to them. A friend of mine killed one several years ago that had the red tint in all his feathers. That is one tough hen w/ one leg. I bet she has difficulties on the limb when the wind blows real hard.
