I will let you know that the "Crele" color on these birds you posted is very poor and very smutty. I will also say they just look like a mix and not a Dominique at all. This is a good Crele pattern. (pictures below are not of my birds) Chris

But under stand that for every book that states that the American Dominique was used to create the Barred Plymouth Rock there is at least one that states it was not the American Dominique. [Even the American Standard of Perfection states that it was not the American Dominique] There are a few...

Note the words being used in the links you posted. They all state American Dominique which is very different from just the term Dominique or Dom. In history there have been, Dominique Leghorn Dominique Gamefowl (nearly ever type of gamefowl has a Dominique/Dom pattern) Dominique Spanish Fowl...

If you read the Standard for the Plymouth Rock it reads; "The first and most prominent cross was that of a Dominique male with Black Cochin or Black Java female which was originally made at Putnam, Connecticut. The Dominique male used was not the American or Rose Comb Dominique male which became...

To who is the what for? Chris

Wrong Dominique, Remember back then the term Dominique also meant a color/pattern. The Dominique that was used to create the Barred Rock was a Single Comb Breed that most likely a game breed. Chris

Sounds like there more a Dominique/ Barred Plymouth Rock Cross than a pure American Dominique. Chris

Bill, I will keep you posted on how the chicks/birds do. Chris

You could try a feed that is medicated with Amproll and BMB [If you cant get BMD in the feed you are using you can get it in the powder form at any good poultry supply store] The Amproll will take care of Cocci and BMD treats for Ulcerative enteritis which is a diseases that kills chicks from 6...

Look up the word Nergal, Nergal was mentioned in the Hebrew Bible and translates to Dunghill Cock. The term dates back that far. Now there use of the word since then may or may not mean the same as you or I have described but the word was still used. I believe that out dates your farmers...

The earliest mention of Dunghill Fowl? You better dig deeper the therm Dunghill fowl was being used way before most new what a Capon was. Chris

Your seeing what I am saying incorrectly, the term Dunghill fowl was first used to describe a fowl that would not fight. Now that fowl could have been pure game, a game cross or a fowl the looked like a gamefowl but had mixed origins (barn yard mutt). Now you can Google the information if you...

Read this description and look at a old picture of a American Gamefowl, sounds very close to the description of a Gamefowl. I look at when the term dunhill was first used and who is still commonly using the term. The term was first used and is still used today by people with gamefowl so I tend...

The term Dunhill fowl has been around since before the 1800's and for the most part referred to a chicken that would not fight. Chris

A dunghill fowl is a chicken that will not fight. (the term was used in the gamefowl world). Basically they were saying a bird was a pile of crap. Chris

Sounds a lot like the description I have read on the Chukar. Chukar (Alectoris chukar) Identification: This species is the size of a large quail, but has strongly barred black and white flanks and a white throat and face, surrounded by a black band. The repeated chuck or...

We cant be confident that is was a single breed cross, it was a example. It could be any number of crosses. Chris

What is in Red I agree with and is what I have been saying for some time now. As far as American Dominique and Dominique American Game being once interchangeable I don't think they were, now they could have been very closely related at one time. Example being that the American Dominique could...

Over the years there has been a lot of Dominique fowl both by name and pattern, and any one of them could have been used in the making of the Barred Rock and the American Dominique and it is possible that the same fowl could have been use in the making of both breeds. There were a few of these...

The term "American" Dominique has been around for some time, the American Standard of Perfection even uses it when describing the history of the Barred Plymouth Rock. "The Dominique male used was not the American or Rose Comb Dominique, but rather a Single Combed, hawk-colored fowl commonly...
