    Ice is back with a brand new invention

    Rufous is rather a spectacular specimen so it would be a real shame if this comb feature is a no go zone And that is Ziggy standing behind him.. Dad to both boys.. He's more orange while Rufous is more red🥰 and Ziggy has a few white feathers in his crest while Rufy is.. well.. rufous crested...

    So I've just picked up Rufous.. my favourite roo and inspected his comb carefully. He is also one of Ziggys sons, and Ice's brother from another mother 😆 He also has an interesting comb.. s shaped but with a nice straight blade. At the back end of the blade it also splits in 2 to create a lil...

    Ice is back with a brand new invention

    Hello friends, This is Ice. He is part of my Crested Ophir Bantam breed creation program. He has the funkiest coolest comb... a wickel comb ending in a forked cup. Essentially terminating in a v shape. Ziggy, his Dad, has a traditional wickel comb (aka S shaped comb) ending in a single blade...

    Preserving "lacing" in breeding

    Update.. My little sebright cross is showing a teenie tiny bit of cresting so I am realising her cross is already to Ziggy (Sire), my first crested rooster. I'm not sure if I should breed her back to Ziggy.. or my new biggest crested boy, Ziggy's son, Rufous.. from the onset. Her Mum was a pure...
