I should get a good few photos of my two Crevecoeur cockerels. They are very shiny green!

I’ve got this new bird that has feathers that are almost slightly cupped? Really good at showing the iridescent color and very shiny. The shade of magenta could be better/deeper but the shine and increased viewing angle is great. Plus this bird is really abnormally soft and smooth feeling. I’ll be interested in breeding it and seeing if these genes can be passed on and maybe even intensified.

Gosh they look so much like dragons and she's so docile! When these guys get a name and hit the market like a pallet of bricks fallen out of the Empire State Building, I want to be in the queue.

Actually this bird is a bit crazy and wild but with enough takes I can get a video like this where it seems relaxed.

LOL well she puts on a good show!
They can't be much worse than the laughing chickens I got rolling around in the incubator. They are very good at flying away from danger.
