That’s food on his beak BTW.

Here’s some updated pics of Sherman, the progenitor of this design:

Yes. I’ll have to do a full writeup later, but in summary, I’ve begun setting the line of terrorfowl into what I think will be my final design.

This is my phenotype for the terrorfowl rooster:

That’s a 5 gallon waterer. He’s only a year old, I figure he still has at least another year of growth ahead:

I think Sherman is looking great! The only flaws I can find would be a slightly higher than desirable tail set, and his eyes aren't pearl. I only have one pair so far that has pear eyes though. I'm working on pearl eyes on by birds too. Although, I assume that's not something you're breeding for.

He is beautiful. I especially how he’s got RJF type plumage, but with a strong oriental look.

He really is stunning in his physique and full plumage, the plumage being so atypical of an oriental. He’s my favorite rooster of all I’ve produced across all my lines.

Yeah the pearl eyes aren’t a goal of mine, and I’ve only ever produced a couple of aseel crosses that had anything similar pearl eyes.

What I don’t want are dark eyes. I don’t like the black eyes of the Liege and I cull for it.

Clearly you are a terrible person, and you probably voted for Georgia Governor for president!

Thanks for sharing! Those are beautiful birds!
