The BB red roo after he molts out his Juvie feathers i'm sure his tail will really take off and get real long for a bantam. He's still in blood feather now...He looks like he has the best of homes...best wishes...TM.
Hate to chime in but its been more like 7 or 8 years maybe more and lots can happen between then and now. I know those birds and they just do no look like the ones David has. I see them every year when I go up there. while Jeramy is a nice guy he has other lines and most run together..I'm sure...
