Tommy, I did a random selection of hens for body to tail length ratios. My BBR line scored the highest overall. 1/2 pure RJF x SDRJF had a 6inch body 7inch tail. The next 4 hens are from an F5 SDrjf selected for long tails crossed on pure phoenix hens...6in x 10 1/8, 6x 9 1/2, and the cock feathered hen is at 6x12 1/2.
From the whites I measured 1 original hatchery stock hen and 3 hatchery stock x private breeders pullets.. hatchery was 6 1/2 x7, the daughters are... 5x 7 1/8, 5 1/2 x 7 5/8, 6 x 7 5/8,
and 6 1/2 x 7 I'll try and get accurate weights on them ,but their appears to be a significant (at least a lb.) difference between the whites and BBR whites being the more petite. NAPA
