An idea for a possible article or database

[lilmillefleur]

So I was looking at 2 of my d’Uccles today, one from breeder stock and one from a hatchery, and I couldn’t help but notice how different they looked especially in body type. Then I thought it would be nice to have an article that shows the difference between pet and show quality types of different breeds. I don’t see how it would be useful, but it could be interesting. If you have a comparison to show of your chickens of the same breed I’d love to see them. Thoughts?

Basically if you get a hatchery bird, it's going to be poorer quality than a dedicated breeder

I know. But I think it would be neat to collect pictures of them for each breed just to show the difference

I would’ve made this article already if I had the right chickens. Unfortunately I’ve never had anything show quality.

Mine are almost all Standard bred (I wouldn’t go so far to say show quality) but I only have about 3 percent of the breeds out there! XD

Here is an example that already exists.

Also basically if it doesn't almost exactly match the description in the standard, they are not show quality
