So I just noticed - Is that a Cuckoo cockerel in the photo? An Araucana cockerel??
Sort of... His father is my blue araucana and his mother is half Barred Rock and half LegHorn. He will be the beginning of my own cuckoo project. He is rumpless and has one tuft. I will breed him to a blue or black araucana pullet this spring. I am expecting this combination to add the barring without adding alot of brown to the eggs. (He has a younger brother that is looking to have better barring so we will see...)
