    What a Ringlet beauty!! Clean barring is to die for not to mention type galore. Ralph Sturgeon/E.B. Thompson would both admire this gal.

    Congratulations, Jeremy!!! Nice bird. Nice win. I bet you are exhausted after the show/trip. Well worth it I'm sure though.

    Barred Rocks Good Shepard Poulty Ranch

    Bob, I believe this handsome male is Jeremy Woeppel's (Jwhip-BYC and XW Poultry Ranch in Nebraska). This one definitely will make your heart race. IMHO I agree that if one applied singularly applied breeding pressure to tails with this particular line, good tails could become the mainstay...

    Mark, While they don't particularly like to be held, my GSBR's generally will let me pick them them up. They know when they see me more often than not, they will get some mealworm treats too.

    IMAO--looks like a nice young male ..good, clean color pattern...looks like he already has some 'stiff' tail coming in too...nice yellow legs and good type thus far...would love to see his wing carriage a bit tighter...hard to say though on that since it's a photo in motion etc. from this pic...

    Is it widely held that once a poultry breeder has bred a line for 3+ generations that it could then be considered their 'line' ? Even though there may be plenty of breeders that started with GSBR's, they still will have been bred according to the breeder's selection/cull process an short/long...

    In the interest of thread momentum... (and I have not posted here near as much as on the Heritage Fowl thread), I figured I would show some pics of my ringlet BR hens from Jwhip's line (his breeders originally come from Danny Williamson/Good Shepherd years back) for those perhaps new to the...
