    Resources for breeding show quality Old English Game Bantams

    What area do you live in. I have some nice fancy females but I need a male for the breeding pen. Actually, I a male for my granddaughters.

    Rooster Capabilities

    These are bantams and the Old English Game Bantams are very active. I’m just trying to get an idea of how I will match up breeders this Spring.

    Can a two-year old Old English Game Bantam rooster cover as many as 8 hens?

    Mulberry face on Birchen Moderns

    Hi TomNY - I didn’t mean to sound as if I was holding the judges to blame for the way the shows go. I appreciate what they do. What I was trying to find out was if the judges, as a whole, have decided to not use red faces when the Standard calls for the mulberry color on Birchen Moderns...

    Mulberry face on Birchen Moderns

    I don’t know how to send a private message but there is another way to show the red faced birds. It won’t help in the breeding program which is the best way, but you can show red faced birds.

    Mulberry face on Birchen Moderns

    I read that in the Standard as well and I didn’t disagree with the judge. Mulberry it is. I have always accepted the judges opinion. The reason I thought this may be something new the judges have agreed on is because last year the red faced bird won the Show Champion male bantam. This year...

    Mulberry face on Birchen Moderns

    Coops for exhibition poultry

    We are showing Birchen and Silver Blue Moderns and just started a male line of Black Breasted Red Old English Game Bantams. They are so different but both are fun in their own way.

    Do you have any issues with keeping the tail feathers in good condition? This seems to the primary issue that I did help with.

    Modern Game Bantams

    IMy granddaughter showed some Modern Game Bantams this last weekend. She didn’t do well so I investigated for a reason. These two males have red faces. I learned this is something new among the judges not to use Birchen or Silver-blue Moderns unless they have the mulberry face. I didn’t know...

    Coops for exhibition poultry

    My granddaughter and I have been showing Modern Game Bantams for several years. Now she wants to also show Old English Game Bantams. We are looking for ideas to buy or build pens to keep these Old English in separate pens to keep rather from ruining feathers while deciding which ones to show.

    Incubator Problem

    That got the job done. I didn’t have an incubator problem. It was an operator problem. Thank you and have a blessed weekend.

    Incubator Problem

    I guess not. Would you let me know how that is done. I’ll give it a try. Thanks for taking the time to help.
