Billjr All my splash hens and roosters are dark like that I dont know if its SOP or not They seem to get darker the older they get. In that picture she was around 8-9 months old. I had a hen with a crooked comb but as she got older it straightened out Your pic looks like shes young so it might...

mahalo here is a pic of one of my hens that I showed last year She took Reserve variety and Reserve breed You can se the long back in the picture that Wynette was talking about.

Billjr Maybe your birds came from Sandhill They claim to have Maria Halls line but the ones I have seen are shaped more like yours with the extremely long tail feathers. Unfortunately as a breeder Maria Hall has no control over what happens to her line once she sells it. I have also heard that...

Kathyinmo We went out today to measure our oldest blue giant roo he stands at 29 inches without stretching his neck. We couldnt show him last year but this year he is looking really special so we shall see next month. I plan on taking his brother Indy (my BB last year) as well it will be...

when my giants were all in the grow out pen they would come running whenever I entered the gate I would practically trip over them when it was feeding time. I called them the horde I stepped on many a foot when they crowded around me.lol

I dont think its from anyones stock some birds are just flightly. I dont keep mine penned up either and I wonder if that has anything to do with it. My giants are in a pen but its over 100 feet longand 50 feet wide. and they also have freedom in my chicken yard. They freerange most of the time I...

Illia It just must be that bird My boys might give me alittle bit of trouble picking them up but once I have them they a very calm and seem to enjoy being handled Even the young ones crowd around me when I go near their pens sometimes almost tripping me I can pick any of them up.

Yes they are gentle giants. We gave my SIL one of our extra roos as he fell in love with them He has that bird so spoiled that he comes into the coop and the bird waits to be picked up and carried around. My daughter is always complaining about how he goes out to the coop ans spends hours...

Henny I have one rooster that is 30 inches tall and another that is 29 inches. Had to have special cages built for them to travel to shows in so they didnt get roughed up lol
