Gonna be some confused gobblers. They sneak around to attack from the rear and realize they are fighting a two headed monster. Prolly won't have to shoot them. They will just committ suicide.

Are you going to put them both on the decoy body at the same time?  ;) :D


That would be funny as heck to put 2-3 heads on one body and see how toms, hens, or gaggle of jakes would respond when they got up close.

Looks like you only get one head choice at a time. I believe Pretty Boy had a two headed Gobbler at one point though.

That was the plan... but I guess I'll have to think of something else. I just bought 14 more 1/4 strut decoys to go with my 8 full strut Gobblers  an 27 hens 1/2 sitting 1/2 staring into nothing. Need a couple feeding hens I think. When I set up my flock it looks like a bunch of confused turkeys that all met up at the same place on accident. I need to work on a theme for the set up.

What position or body language is it trying to display really?

In one form it would appear as 1/4 strut jake that is showing some dominance with the snood elongated.

The next head position with the "Head Tilt" and snood high and tight is of a subordinate either near/around a dominant bird... Didn't see to position this over the back of a breeding hen as they did, this is not his place in social structure.

The make all kinds of decoys and many body positions, there are keys to setting decoys "right", it is a definite skill set.

Yep, that turkey's gonna have a WTF moment.
