Albino toms?
Anybody ever got one? I saw one the other day on my way out shed hunting - lives off a major interstate, so I'm sure about 300,000 other guys know about him too. Either way, I've got the location logged in the old databank upstairs. LOL
Looked a lot like this young lady, but I'm 99% sure it was a male. I couldn't get the binos on him b/c if I tried to pull off, I'd have been killed by a semi- for sure. LOL

I have heard rumor that the white strand of turkey have migrated from Canada. I am not 100% sure on this but, a field I use to hunt had 5 or 6 different white birds in it. I asked the owner of the property and that is the story I got.
I would most definetely shoot one!!!!

Thanks for the chuckle. But in the mid 1980's Ontario and the rest of Canada was listed has having no wild turkeys. Ontario traded some different spieces of wild animals to get some wild turkeys to try and bring them back to their natural habitat in Ontario. It was a sucess.
Actually there is a known fact that wild turkeys do sometimes come "PIE-BLAD", or a white strain, just like you can get moose, deer ect the same way. It is not necessary that it was crossed with a domestic bird to get that way.
