Several years ago, there were some domestic turkeys that must have gotten loose from a farm and they teamed up with the wild ones.  You could see the results of breeding that had partial white and wild coloring. I chose to shoot some of the white ones as feral domestic turkeys and did not use a tag for them.  As time went on, the wild color dominated.

I thought the same until at a wildlife meeting I was told it was a color phase. I have white, gray, and brown blends on my place in central Texas. I conted about 180 birds one day.
