Yeah, we need to import Silver Grey for sure...here's a hen from the UK.
Notice the depth of body...

She looks really fluffy or is it just me? Is that what we should be aiming for?

That is a very floppy comb!

Yellow House has some very productive White Dorkings.

It would be great if we could get the Silver Grey back to where it should be.
Nice deep bodies, full developed breasts that spell "p r o d u c t i o n" !

That floppy hen up there probably lays very well. Combs you can work with...I just love her shape/structure.

Sure would be nice.

I was kidding about the comb re recent Heritage Rhode Island Red Thread. Comb is only worth 5 points out of 100.

That is a 95plus Hen

dorking hen combs are supposed to flop if they're actively laying... no points are taken for that.

I like the floppy combs.
