When I was very very little my grandfather had me bury a dove egg thinking it was a tortoise egg. That part of the garden smelled horribly for three years
That sort of looks like the roosters at question comb and wattles? Is it possible he is a mix between a bengum (the only straight combed aseel type I know of) and a regular combed one?
Thank you so much! As a second question, I know this thread is for The Moonshiner to post his pics and discuss about his birds, so if it's not the best place for me to ask this question, I'm so sorry, please tell me and I will delete this post immediately. So here goes the question. Aseel are...
I might make the most dumb headed question ever, so don't come for me, chicken genetics still have me banging my head on a wall. How do you replace straight combs with pea combs?
Now that's a showstopper. Elegant, with just enough exaggerated features, bold yet beautiful, everything a leghorn should be. My favorite of yours are from the blue/blue mottled project
I was mostly thinking of the mottled hen, and the other birds you've showcased on this thread, but I'm sure that when she's not molting she's just as, if not more beautiful
I'm sorry, no. Floppy combs on roosters are ugly. Dong Tao are ugly (but in an interesting way) amd pea combs are just fine, more than fine, gorgeous actually
No I'm sorry, this is just not right. Even I find Dong Tao ugly, and I love aseel! You can't say that the Dong Tao isn't ugly, it's not possible. I can see a case being made about them being ugly beautiful, but you can't deny their ugliness. It's like saying a leghorn rooster with a floppy comb...
