I'm quite computer illiterate so not sure if this pic will show up. Don't have pics of my current penes so thought I'd try to post this pic of eggs, the 2 darkest ones are the penes. Currently have mediocre partridge, nicer wheaten and hope to add a few Crele. Don't post often but do read this thread and love seeing others pictures!!

Hey my last pic attempt worked so will post a pic of Partridge Roo that I no longer have, don't know if you can see in the photo but he has a very nice kings comb.

He's not right from comb to ear lobes to leg color

Hi Victoria.

He's actually a BCM, but my line is very heavy on the Penedesenca influence. I've not personally crossed them with Penedesenca, but the influence is there from long, long ago. These Penedes, I believe, are in serious need of some fresh blood, so I hope to see some wonderful things in generations to come.

Are you saying those dark eggs are from Wheaten Penes? :wo

Do you ever sell hatching eggs? I would love to have some Wheaten girls that lay like that!

I'm so sorry I misinterpreted your intention. I thought you were posting a Pene roo. Projects are fun and always interesting.

Hi, Does anyone have any experience with Penedesenca bred by Jerry Poole? I found him on Ebay, He has both Partridge and Wheaten. I am recieving my Brinsea Eco20 incubator on tuesdaty and was considering 2 dozen eggs from Jerry. Any feedback or experience would be appreciated. I live in a warm area here in CA. and have noticed my heavily feathered birds struggle with the summer heat. I am hoping the Penedesenca will tolerate the heat better. I may stilll try a few BCM, but the Penedes breed resonates with me. If I cannot find any nice birds more locally, I will be giving Laura a call. Thank You, Luke
