A ? For those who raise and breed generations of show quality birds

[SouthernAcres]

1st the breed is Wyandotte bantam
2nd the color is dominant

We have 2 roos that we need to pick between to move to breeding pen

Roo 1 has corect body type and close on color.
Roo 2 has corect color and close on body type.
Which one would you use and why?

Type always come first then colour, but personally I will use both of them on different hens , what I mean is breed the one that is close to type with hens who have excellent type and vice versa!

We did a unit on the Wyandotte on the CSU, Chicken State University thread. I think you would find it helpful. It begins on page 25 of the thread, here:
