Do turkeys lose their beards

Yes at least most speices. My Gray Slates all have beards I have 4, 3 hens and 1 tom. My 2 black turkeys are hens and they both have very long beards. My bronze turkeys that are female do not have beards. I think it depends on the speices. My hens all lay eggs except one of my two broad breasted whites. One has a tiny beard but the other does not. They are indeed both female but I think it has been bred out of them to breed.
