Cackle has approached the American Spitzhauben Club about getting better birds to improve their stock. I think it's marvelous that a hatchery actually cares about the quality of their stock.

Understand this is just my opinion. I'm sure there will be someone who reads this and says, 'I do it just the opposite and it worked for me.'
What I'm giving you is what I have personal encountered.
Malays need to develop slowly. Not to much protein. They also do much better in a large run (say 1/2 acre or more) or totally free-range. The problem is not with the females but the males.
Requirements for raising the males (as I see it):
1. Plenty of access to grass.
2. Plenty of area to run and develop leg muscles.
3. Not to much protein.
4. Plenty of sunshine.
Not nearly as aggressive by any means. They have lots leg and heart problems.
