That is long, but our place we had on the Rio Grande had quite a few bearded hens and some were quite long, probably longer than the one in your picture... Most I ever saw at once was 3 in one flock and of those three, 2 were at least that long with one being double bearded... Still be cool to find out if there is a known record and compare it to yours. Would still be a fine trophy worthy of mounting! Good luck getting her in the Fall... (don't think bearded hens are legal in any spring season).

I have actually seen hens with full beards like gobblers. I have a 6 1/2 inch beard from a hen I shot in Kent county several years ago. Bearded hens are very common there. We would see 5 plus every year. We were covered up in turkeys though. We carded slingshotswith is to the blinds to spook turkeys away from the corn so the deer would come in.
