this is STUNNING type! WOW! that is one gorgeous bird.No matter what kind of seramas , Type over everything ... This little guy was bred by Jacob seem he is learning very quickly ... Even in frizzle I see so many lack the legs and can't stand tall and proud. But Jacob fix that in his line . He gave this boy to me which I donated to a 4-Her program so we are very happy with that .
This is " Type " ....
I don't even like that cocao (patton or pop or what ever the chocolate color is being called) but the pattern on the breast, the type and the balance of feather textures and lights and darks on this bird is incredible . A real beauty
Here are some more pictures of Charles. He gets all excited when I aproach the cage and he spent the entiire time trying to escape and get away from me. When he is relaxed, his head comes back, his breast comes out, and his tail looks a little more balanced, but still a bit stretched out.
Also, let's test how much i know: Feel free to critiue my critique. I will also add that he was purchased as an American Serama and would be shown as an American. If that helps.
I'm thinking he could be a bit shorter in the back and saddle area to pull his type and posture together. His breast is a bit long and this combines with the longer back and causes him to reach a bit with his posture. all in all he needs to be a bit more compact instead of long and lanky.
Certainly not a show winner, but I love him anway. Since I couldn't afford the $150+ that others were asking in my area, I purchased the best I could afford, which was Charles and his two ladies. I figure these will be good to get started with and to learn a bit about the genetics and breeding of Seramas. I purchased them at a poultry swap and I really love them.
