    Cream Legbar Working Group: Standard of Perfection

    I do both. I try to hang out with the birds so I can see their natural carriage and watch all the parts working together. But I also take a lot of photos. Last weekend I filled an SD card with over 1K photos. I take a lot to get a few good ones. I also spend a bit of time looking them over in...

    Some of my females.. various ages. I noticed when I looked at a photos of the Jill Rees bird I have included, that many of my birds did mot seem to have the fan tail. I wondered if it was where they were in molting or a characteristic. Now I know to look for the wider fan as I choose breeders.

    I would not cull on a comb as my first disqualifier until I had a lot of other things right in the bird. I think I have read from those that show a bad comb is only a few point deduction.

    GaryDean26, the difference is the first is more mature and laying. may actually be a hen at this time. The other is still very young not quite to the point of lay. She has a bit of maturing to do yet, and I am hoping when mature is a better bird then the first girl.

    This is another male I really like body wise. He has no crest.. but everything else I like. i think the back is of good length and has a good slope to it. He is a stout bird as well.. lot of depth to his body. With no crest I have a nice comb. If he continues to look good in a few months I am...
