Indeed!!Oh, my !
Me too!from the first time I saw them, I've always said he has the best I have ever seen - beautiful birds aren't they. you can really see the long back and the tail angles on both his hens and roos - I love everything I see on these birds!!
definitly eye flash lolPiet, That one pullet has the wrong eye color. That would be a disqualifying defect.
Thanks so much for the feedback Netland! The welsummers pictured above are about 1 year old so I'm not sure if they'll do any more filling in. One issue I've had is finding white in their tail feathers and in their primaries. I'm working to get rid of it but it's very frustrating to find!Michael, I like that cock bird (perhaps a bit flat chested, but otherwise looks very, very nice). His back line is especially good in my opinion, and I think his colors are exceptionally good (judging by this picture), and I can see he has nice mottling on his breast. We decided NOT to go with the German/Danish standard for the breast coloring of the males (light grey, then brown, then a black "droplet" at the tip of each feather), so there is adequate mottling on him (and you will certainly find more that is hidden under the black). I also like some things about the hens (especially their nice back line, which does not slope too much, and their even, warm rusty-red color). From experience, I know that some judges (as evidenced from Pacific NW shows) want more of a tail spread, but I think their tails look fine (a higher tail set might be nice, though). Depending on their age, a fuller breast might be nice, but if they are young pullets, that will probably be taken care of as they "fill in" in the course of the year. I think you have some nice birds.
