They do it by displaying their plumage, normally male turkeys look a ot like female turkeys, but when they are trying to impress the ladies they make all their feathers stadd up like those pictures you always see on Thanksgiving. they appear much larger because of this, and their tail feathers make that familiar fan. Then they do their dance, which is more of a strut around the female he is interested in until she takes interest.
