I have several of the black bodied ones with the marble crown/top so I did think he looked similar to those.
He isn't aggressive at all so he can stay for now until I figure out what to do with him. I still want to try him out with a light tolbunt to see what comes of it. I will try to find...
No didn't see any others - I may be wrong but I think this was the only one she had at the time?
She is member of the Polish Breeders Club and that is how we came in contact with each other. I'm sure there is some logical explanation for why his looks differ from the usual? I'll ask her for...
YES - she said he IS VERY DARK for a Tolbunt but that if I breed him with a light hen I will see the offspring are certainly Tolbunt. So now I just need to use the right hen.
Can I use other than a Tolbunt to get the color in breeding with this dark roo? I do have a Buff Laced hen that is...

Thanks,
