Not at all!!!

I am not sure about them tonight!!! I had two roosters deciding they needed a gang bang on every solitary female they found. I had to take swift action to prevent them from hurting the hens. I have one hen in the hospital from these two ruffians!

I like the comb! I am fighting combs it appears this year. It looks the U shape will do fine. I have an older guy that came through the winter unscathed, so I think I will be caging him soon for the fall shows. I need to make sure he stays out of the sun and can’t do something stupid while...

I have 2 barn cats I could not find names for so we call them, Grey Cat and Orange Cat.

I think I did not write very clearly. I have had great U shapes for several years now, but this years youngun's are not quite what I expected. I am hoping the butts will turn up soon. But it seems every year I fight a new problem that arises, Toes, combs, Tails, barring etc....arrrgh.... But...

You may want to take a very critical look at the birds you plan to breed. Many SOP breeders find one bird out of 20 or birds. The chances of having a SOP bird in 4 is almost nil. That said I keep many non-Showbirds also. They become friends and pets...and give us eggs. Some of my favorite...

I have a few like that I would love to get rid of. I need to find a good rooster. I am not getting as much U shape to the back as I want, some of this years hatch are dished a little in the comb. I am at that awkward point, I had liked mine for several years and won the best of breed at most...

Are you planning to breed to the SOP or for your own backyard flock

I look for the weaknesses first so I know what to fix.... btw some of my favorite birds are not show birds..based on personality ... but I always look for the perfect bird.

It seems when you get the good wattles.. the comb falls to pieces..the joys of breeding showbirds....awwwwwwww

Yep, that’s what I said.. nice rooster.. too bad the wattle is not smaller....

Nice rooster, but I see he has the same problem most of mine have...too large of wattles.

:lau I saw a different article that said the out come would be always cushion combs,, obviously it was wrong,,, :lau:lau

To this point, I will show you a picture of my toads comb. This comb was the result of a single comb mother and a cushion comb father...According to the charts it should not happen, but it did.

Can you rush the whole thing some, I doubt I have 20 years to wait.

Smaller and not happy. He had just got his Mareks vaccine and complained the whole time.

Can you pick out the Dom?

My hatch was a bust AGAIN!! I only had one DOM hatch, A little boy. I am changing roosters this week. I have one I was going to cull that grew into a nice looking young man.
