To attract female turkeys. Believe it or not Tom Turkeys look the way they do because of evolution, manipulated by the sexual preferences of female turkeys. They prefer the really ugly Toms so by sexual selection the Toms just kept getting uglier and uglier.
The only turkeys that have wattles are the males. The wattle is used by the males to court the females.
They have a flap of skin called a wattle that hangs down by their chin. It is basically a beard.

The peacock (can they fly? I can't remember) but if I'm wrong, cassowaries are quite colourful - blue neck, red wattles - and so are brush turkeys - yellow wattles, red heads. I'm pretty sure lyrebirds can't fly. They're brown anyway, but their tail feathers are magnificent.
Wattles House was created in 1895.
Wattles Mansion was created in 1907.
An emu does not have any wattles at its throat.
