I am surprised at you NYREDS. Especially That day When Dsfrango Told us about that show. She had said That she didn't understand Why That bird placed over Hers. She thought the other birds head was way to big. she Even told Us that you Had said One of the main reasons Why you chose that bird over hers Was because of the head size and development. You Even admitted That you Were judging that show. So what's the point here. When I think of a large head think of well a Developed Head that has more of The capacity to be well rounded, short, With a small beak. That's the cool thing about large heads. Is the beaks are really small so What That means Is You can easily Breed that with another bird with a long beak and have all the chicks come out With short beaks and well-rounded heads. Haven't you realized That there is a limit to roundness in a medium sized head. I have to say The birds head has to get pretty large before The Birds Head gets out of proportion to the boby. The reason why say that is because Chickens have small heads compared to their bodies. Just saying.
Okay.....let me say this is NOT an attack but an opinion and discussion.I am surprised at you NYREDS. Especially That day When Dsfrango Told us about that show.

Why is it that you think everyone is talking about you unless they quote someone else's post? This isn't the first time you have gone after someone else, getting mad at them for saying something that you don't like, when they did not quote you or even say your name.If you read the description instead of going by the pic you will see what I am talking about ones agian. A bird with a un full tail is not going to do as well as a bird that dose have a full tail it corrcet confomation and you can ask any of the top breeders that have actually earned the title grand master exhibitor, grand master breeder, and is well known around the country for champion lines.I was looking on the American Sumatra Association on the showbirdbid site and what they where talking about is how important it is to keep the large fowl sumatra's big and the bantams small because a lot of birds they are seeing in the show room are under weight in the large fowl and the bantams where to big. so it is either you are going to small or you are trying to make me look bad in front of every single person who reads this thread.
I didn't ask what he meant, you were going on and on like you always do, and about what they said on showbirdbid site and I said to ask him, because I didn't interpret it to mean to breed them larger than the standard said, it said as large as possible so that would be 6 pounds, but then I said maybe ask him, because you can't seem to be able to read what people are saying and that if we all don't agree with you then we are all wrong. and I did post on that site asking him what he means yesterday, so guess we shall wait and see. I just don't get how you can say that weight isn't important, when it says its a disqualification if they are more than 20% over which is 4.8 pounds for a hen and 6 pounds for a male, but I am not going to keep doing this with you because you don't get it... weight is a DQ just like a wrong comb, white feathers in the wing but you can believe whatever you want, that's whats great about America, just because we don't agree with it, well we are entitled to our opinion too.Did I say that in order to be a good sumatra breeder or have good advice you have to be in the sumatra club... NO I did not all I was saying was that there is good information on there that is helpfu and ture.... And douge akers was probably talkingbout the weight infnityhrt had asked about what he ment and someone had just said that it was the weight and size he was talking about... But I think you should be asking doug what he ment instead of coming up with conclusions and I am also talking about my self just to let you know. I could be wrong but we will see.
