Which Buff Orp Roo Is Going to Be My Babies Daddy?

[cluckcluck42]

Just what the title says, which roo do you guys think I should use?

There is "Poofy" the guy with the nice rounded tail that I can only desribe as a poof. Then Mister Joe with the less poofy more normal looking tail.

I'm only going off what I've seen online but I am thinking Poofy has a more correct BO tail? (Poofy is on the left)

Any other input is much appreciated! Feel free to tell me they are gorgeous hunks of men as well.

Oh yeah- these pictures? They're from TODAY!!!! That's how much snow we got a few days ago. Gross, huh?

Here is Poofy kicking up his heels:

P.S I am fully aware these pics kinda suck but have you ever tried to take chicken pics on your lunch break with a borrowed cam? It ain't easy!

I don't about that breed but i also vote for Poofy...
In my opinion... the fuzzyer the butt, the better ...

LOL thanks you two!! I have another roo that is bigger then these two and is in with the girls right now. Still debating switching him for Poofy. Love that tail!

I like Poofy because his color looks more consistent throughout. One of the biggest challenges with breeding buff is getting the color uniform. He looks pretty nice.

I think the differences in the tail are because Poofy hasn't started getting his longer sickles yet. I don't like his comb as much as the other one, but that is easy to fix and select for later.

Sorry about all that white stuff on your ground. I am so relieved to finally see green grass growing here.
