They’re both beautiful! Go with the one that’s more of a gentleman to the ladies and nicer/more docile to you and children!

Definitely chose the nicest one. I had four at one time and let’s just say that I had an easy time making that choice. But I do think rooster number one is pretty. Also if you want them for breeding pick the one that you think looks the best so you can breed them and get exactly what you want.

The first one is definitely the best in terms of the breed standard, at least as far as I can tell. It depends how serious you are about breeding them, if you’re not too fussed then you can go with the best personality like others have said.

Here is the international BCM thread, it might be worth asking here, it’s where I learnt about my birds. Some really great breeders here who can give you some advice.
