A hen turkey can remain fertile for about 10 days to 2 weeks after a gobbler has left. During this time, she can lay fertilized eggs from the sperm stored in her reproductive tract. After this period, if no mating occurs, her eggs will no longer be fertilized.

How good is a turkeys sight?

A turkey's eyes are set in the sides of its head for monocular vision. But a hen or gobbler makes up for a lack of 3D sight by cocking its head left or right to determine the distance to other turkeys or potential danger in the brush. A turkey can twist its long neck 360 degrees, which in effect gives it eyes in the back of its head. While a turkey has poor night vision, it sees much more crisply in daylight than a human with 20/20 sight. These laser-like eyes are the turkey's primary defense mechanism. Turkeys, unlike deer, can see and assimilate some colors. For example, both hens and subordinate toms react to the changing blues, reds and whites of a dominant gobbler's head and neck during the spring breeding season. A tom's color-pulsing head stimulates hens for mating and suppresses the breeding urges of beta toms.
