What is the difference between a hen turkey and tome turkey?

You're likely thinking of "tom turkey" instead of "tome turkey".

Here's the difference:

* Hen turkey: A female turkey. They are typically smaller than toms and have a more rounded body shape.

* Tom turkey: A male turkey. They are larger than hens and have a distinctive "beard" of long, bristle-like feathers hanging from their chest. They also have a fleshy wattle that hangs from their beak and can be quite colorful, especially during mating season.

So, the main difference is simply gender.
