Last week A bearded hen came in to my call. Her beard was fairly thick and at least 8 inches long. We usually see one or two bearded hens each year. Most hen beards are thin and fairly short. Has anyone else seen any this year?

Del,
There are two hens that I regularly see within a half mile of my home. One of them has a beard ten inches long and as thick as any gobbler you will ever see. The other one has a beard about 8 inches long and it is fanned out like a small dust broom. Both hens are on the large side, I'd say the 10 inch hen will go 12-13 pounds. Pretty big for a hen in my neck of the woods...
