New gamefowl thread

[centrarchid]

I forgot to list my cubalayas. I have whites , blues, a pair of blacks, and a couple splash. My original ones came from Glenn Drowns, Doc Everett, and Chris Wahlen. I culled my bb reds, sold my blacks, sold my gold duckwings and phased out all the other colors

Doc Everett still alive?

Why would you want an egg producing gamefowl? If it's egg production you are looking for, then other types of chickens might be best for you, even the most productive gamefowl is going to have limited production compared to other breeds

My first chickens were 13 gamefowl of unknown origin that someone gave to me. After this I acquired egg breeds of various sorts

As time goes on I routinely observe my gamefowl thriving, prospering, multiplying and giving me far more eggs than I can handle as the other breeds struggle to adapt

I don't want caged dependants, I want a symbiotic relationship with resilient companions that can survive in the forest without direct human involvement

I would say that a flock of healthy American hens will lay more eggs than a family can eat in a year. I don’t believe bloodline label matters. Its simply a question of whether they’re tightly inbred or not.

Since they're not bred for egg production they will lay about the same. It would be like asking who's bobwhite quail lay more. Mine or Jimmy's down the street

OK, it's clear I misinterpreted the situation and I apologize. Anyways Oriental gamefowl are definitely not what your looking for so you're definitely on a good track searching for Americans
