term for castrated male turkey
Report Abuse. A male turkey that has not been castrated is called a Tom; if he has been castrated he is a Tim. I'm not sure if this info is correct, I found it on the Randolph-Macon College website. Hope this helps. Source(s): http://www.rmc.edu/jterm/2006/richmond/r...est Answer: 'Tis said that a hokie is a castrated turkey, the mascot of Virginia Polytechnic Institute. But that is fiction, made up by mean-spirited rivals of VPI. Hokie is a meaningless, made-up word for the school cheer.
