. . . . . and you have got some nice ones. I have seen alot of these German strain NHs around lately. I wonder who will stick with them, and how much influence they will have on the breed in the long run. I like seeing the good looking New Hampshires. I spent alot of time trying to find good ones. I like seeing the interest in them. I would like to know if anyone is going to try working with them, and if so . . . What do they intend to work on? I would also like to see if there is any good "American" NHs out there. Thank You for sharing the pictures.

I was looking for a thread on Americaunas/EE's and came across this one. I was interested as I temporarily had some NH hens, and I still have a NH roo. I absolutely adored the hens, they were heavier than a typical layer due to them being dual purpose, but they still payed really well. I absolutely love my NH roo, Big Red. He is such a big handsome boy and takes wonderful care of his girls, 5 production red hens (either cinnamon queens or something similar) and looks after my younger flock of barred rocks, 3 hens and a roo. He doesn't go out of his way to pick fights with the younger rooster, but he does put him in his place when it's necessary. I'm sorry it's a bad picture, it doesn't do him justice.

Here's my NH chicks now at 6 weeks.
they have been such fun to watch develop thus far...absolutely love their temperament and fast growth/feathering...overall I believe there are going to be some keepers here...there are many unknowns but I will for sure be selecting females with open tails...with improvement toward the SOP in mind there's coloration to consider on the female hackles for black tipping...overall coloration of both sexes (hopefully lighter than most german line birds)...want plenty of type and making sure I watch for the cock's tail angle for correctness. both sexes should be meaty looking which it does not appear to be an issue with this cross thus far...I hope everyone enjoys the pics...i know it's too soon to tell much for sure...

P.S. please excuse the little production leghorn pullet ....she sneaked herself into my lens!!! I suspect she'll earn her keep despite not being bred to the SOP
