    Large fowl polish

    I'm looking for large fowl polish. I prefere eggs, just because I love to hatch, but I'm ok with chicks. I'd like to buy from a breeder. If there is a hatchery that has decent birds, I'm open to that too.

    I need help identifying this guy. I know that he is a roo, he's my first to crow. As a chick he had the chipmunk pattern and then he looked a little barnvelderish. Now I have no clue. I'm thinking he may be a mix of something. Any ideas? The second pic is a little blurry but it shows his...
