The skin flaps are call wattles.
farmers have genetically altered the original perception of turkeys. the reason for this is that the "flap" of skin is edible for human consumption and apparently tastes very nice so the farmers can get even more money for selling that flap of skin
Snoods length in males seem to be a good indication of parasite resistance in the individual. Although it is not an organ the longer the snood, the higher the parasite resistance. Female turkeys prefer males with longer snoods and is a way of sexual selection.
A ''snood'' is a nickname for a turkey's wattle.Which is the part that hangs over a turkey's beak.
The red pouch that hangs over a turkey's forehead is called a "wattle." It is a fleshy protuberance that can vary in size and is more prominent in male turkeys. The wattle, along with the snood (the fleshy growth that hangs over the beak), plays a role in mating displays and communication among turkeys.
There were over 271,676,000 turkeys raised in 2007.
The toucans beak color is yellow with orange
If you are referring to the red flap of skin under the turkey's beak then that is called a WATTLE. The wattle is both a mate attraction and a cooling system. Blood pumps through the wattle close to the surface of the skin and ambient air help to displace body heat cooling the bird down. Turkey's do not sweat , they pant in hot weather and they allow cooler air to move over the wattles to help keep them from overheating.
Gobble It's called a Wattle and it is only on the boy turkeys!!
