    CSU - Chicken State University- Large Fowl SOP

    This photo was taken a few hours ago and we're having a spring-like day. This cockerel is smaller than the first one pictured and I had just thrown him into this new pen so he wasn't familiar with it. They are two different birds. The first bird was put up because it was the only good pic of...

    CSU - Chicken State University- Large Fowl SOP

    Sorry to keep throwing pics at you, but this guy was one was towards the top of the list as a keeper. (Sorry for the blood on him as he does not play well with others.) He comes close to the circle scenario in my eyes, but is his back long enough?

    CSU - Chicken State University- Large Fowl SOP

    I'm pretty much a novice and have checked mine birds against the SOP. I have my ideas, but would like an experienced eye on them and critique. Most pictures I have are of them on the move and there's a difference in their appearance, so I'm posting the best pictures I have. Thanks in advance.
