Just thought it unique, never saw a beard stay encased in that "wax" that usually appears at the base. _________________ straight shootin' |

I've never seen that either. You should email that pic to Lovett Williams and see what he has to say. Is that a little double beard on the upper right coming out of the "wax"? _________________ All we need to do is call those hens across this field. |

Good eye Rut, maybe that waxy buildup sticking around has something to do with multi beards.?.?.. Out of all the magazine articles I ever read, never read one on what causes multi beards.?.? That little second beard looks extra encased.
For the sake of scientific discovery we must shoot more jakes. And a fair warning to any age bird next week and the week after, if you gobble at me and enter my personal space of 40 yards you are getting it. _________________ straight shootin' |

Yeah I've never seen one encased like that. And I definitely think that's a double bearded jake. _________________ A man who carries a cat by the tail, learns something he can learn in no other way. ~Mark Twain |
