So if gallus are in the pheasant category, then should gallus gallus domesticus be in the pheasant cartegory too?

Oh wow, these are amazing!
Have you thought about crossing them with some regular chickens? I think the Ayam Bekis- something is a really pretty bird

Hee-hee - cute

It is my understanding that gallus gallus domesticus is so different morphologically from its ancestor, gallus gallus (or gallus sonneratii) that natural inbreeding is practically impossible, and thus, a subspecies of the subspecies - like great grandchildren on one's family tree.

Was going to ask the same thing, at least for next years hatch!
I have a thread on here talking about looking for some (under the pheasant cat. I might add, as junglefowl are related to pheasants)
I know they are pricey, and a special needs bird, but Randy, if you have any for next years hatch, let me know, also looking for the ceylons too
