I did 12 years ago. They looked like a mixed up bunch of Orientals. They did look like orientals, just mixed together. They tended to look like poor versions of Thai/Brazilian mixes with a bit of shamo and something else mixed in. Who knows, maybe some things have changed since then.

If you want to seriously raise actual oriental fowl, contact a breeder. If you want some mixed up oriental "looking" birds get the ideal ones. Have seen the "asil" and "shamo" looking birds from them and most were no where close to being desirable as orientals. Nothing against them, it is just they make money as a business selling chicks in numbers.. most oriental gamefowl lay very few eggs per hen per year, therefore good business sense would dictate that the hatchery to make a better profit on this venture would need to one, either have a HUGE flock of birds to meet their egg demand or would need to add some outside blood to boost their egg production. All that I have seen look like some outside blood of the more egg productive variety was added. Just my opinion, it all comes down to the individual backyard breeder as to what they want to throw feed at in the backyard.
