    [/img]I shot a nice turkey in Colorado this fall that was molting. 6-8 middle tail feathers were growing back. The turkeys here in Colorado are supposedly Merriams that were transplanted in the 60's. Their tail feathers vary greatly. This particular one is the darkest I've gotten to date. He had an 8 3/4" beard and 3/4" spurs. The tail feather tips are darker, almost "caramel" color. A lot like Rios I've seen farther east. Here's a pic. If anyone thinks they got a close match, please contact me with price! Thanks!
