I just wanted to put that out there. You can't let Oriental breeds free range unless they are the only ones out there or are mated. Even then you may have a lethal fight. Real Shamo's will kill each other in a flock. Mine start fighting about about 3-4 weeks and have to be seperated from then on. I'm just letting you know that they are different from the run of the mill chicken and they are certainly not a flock chicken. They are really cool birds, but they are quite different from the average chicken.
........and don't name them.

I built an enclosed run and pen for my one o shamo and his two hens and his three araucana hens. It is on the other side of the house from my "regular" chickens. A couple of the hens are broody now and I faithfully collect those eggs every day....and eat them so I don't have another roo. I don't have the facilities nor the mentality for more than one! LOL ...but I REALLY like the o shamo and love having them and am willing to realize they are different and have specific needs.

The three araucana hens would toast here with the males I have.

I will find out if the myth of naming eating birds is true.... named all my current flock and my fav is chicken nugget! Mmmmm tasty!
And I will deff find a good reputable breeder before I get a shamo! May even travel xcountry for one!
 
Well I've got time to look! DW says I can't have no mo chickens till we buy some land..... lol now where to move....lol my yokohamas and sumatras come in next Thursday! Hatchery stock but I don't plan on showing them cept to my gramps who may wind up tryin to steal them for himself!
Gotta love the 90ish old man!
 
I thought Belle was your fav. Not sure if the kids would let us get by with out naming them... Maybe when we have an empty nest.

Ish
I love those whites. On a side note: how long does it take a cock to get used to the tether? As a rule...
I tried one on Bogart and I thought he was going to eat his leg off. I want to get him used to it soon.
