Pam why would GFF be culling or worried about birds with sprigs? There's no standard to go buy. I would think that would be the beauty of selling birds that aren't APA recognized. Why bother or care when they can make money off of whatever they sell.Upon closer inspection I have one hatch hen I kept that has them they are so tiny on a hen you wouldn't know if you weren't looking. Now the culling begins. I sure hope the ones I bought direct don't have them. Thanks for the info. Pam
I haven't taken a count but I know well over half to three quarter of the birds I have show the sprigs. I would imagine the eggs I got from the other place were just from random birds in a flock that haven't been selectively bred. Just a guess though.
Your thoughts?
