Thanks, he looks better than his daddy, who I got from a breeder but he is so not "type" with his wry tail, and shortness, and other imperfections. He is a love though. His son, Emerson is just a great rooster too. Got his gentle temperament from his daddy.
He is a standard, and so far, his only son is Emerson, shown here with no wry tail. I understand that it can come through or not and it didnt'. His son is also much larger than he is.
Harvey was very ill as a chick and nearly died. I think that coupled with his breeders breeding probably made him small. I could be wrong about that , so someone with more knowlege than I have, please feel free to jump in.
Anyway, thanks, Even with all his imperfections, he has become my favorite boy.
