Crele Bantam Cochin Project

[PhoenixFeatherFarms]

Ok so I cant find a thread for just the Crele project in Bantam Cochins so thought I would start one

Here is my Crele project cockerel. I have two pullets I still need to get pics of but here he is for now

His Back

An Upper Back Feather

So who else is working on this and what are yours looking like?

I've been working on this project for about 3 years. I'm still not where I want to be but I think the cockerels I produced this year will be helpful in obtaining the color/type that I eventually want to have. Here are some pics taken today of 8 month old cockerels & a pullet. Pics aren't great but you can see pattern & type. By the time they are put in the breeding pen next year they will have improved greatly.
