There are those that will tell you they can tell the difference in a Wheaten cock and BBR cock; perhaps they can. I never could. In either one, just replace the Black with Blue and you have Blue Wheaten/Blue Red. The name is determined by the color of the female. However, in Orientals some lines...

You should know by 4 to 6 weeks based on feather coloration. I wasn't referring to show quality. I was referring to them being the breeds stated: Saipan and Thai.

You probably will not have to worry about the sex of the chicks as neither the Saipan nor the Thai from a hatchery will be real.

Never have seen that.

Anyone planning on coming to the Show? Who will be exhibiting fowl? And what kind?

The Unifour Show will be in Salisbury, NC on 1 March 2014. I plan to be there as always. If I have something you need just send me a pm and I'll see what I can do to help you out. I may be able to help out with Asil, Cubalaya, Shamo, or Games it just depends on what you need and what I have extra.

Congrats to all the Ko breeders! Excellent job.

I ran fall hatches for years. Always difficult. I prefer the first hatch to be Christmas week and then every week then until Easter. These chicks are much easier to raise than fall hatched chicks.

This is one of several reasons why fall hatching is very difficult.

You won't know their adult plumage until they moult 3 times; which is usually by the time they are 6 to 9 months old.

Don't worry about anything.

I'm going to guess that he'll finish out between 3 and 4 lbs by the time he is two years old. If you really want the bantams you could get a small hen and put this fellow over her. It might still take a generation or two but that would retain his blood in the line. He is just an excellent...

Thanks for correcting your vocabulary. Though not game Malays are Oriental and supposedly there once were game Malays. Our birds (Orientals and Games) deserve better than a make-believe word like 'roo.' They are stags (or cockerels) and cocks (roosters). As to flock-watcher, truth be told a...

None for sale now. I don't have spuds.

Shamo that have a cushion comb have been crossed with Malay.

They look like Thais.

My bantam Asil come around 2 1/4 lbs as cocks which is really too large as well; so I show them as cockerels.

I thought he was large. A bantam Asil cock (over 1 year of age) cannot weight over 1 3/4 lbs (give or take 20%). 3 lbs for a 9 month old is the size of a standard size Asil (Reza type which is the only type standardized). He is very nice looking though.

She is very nice. No doubt in my mind that she's a Wahl hen.

What does he weigh? He is a very nice looking Asil but from the wire he looks quite big to be a bantam.
