Thanks! Yesterday was one of those "OH MY" days, you know when you really look at them for form and growth and not just heath. Can't wait to see how he grows since he's only 1 1/2.

I had it in my head he was a juvenile not an adult

Josephine is this years hatch but Janet said he was last years. He acts more mature then all the youngsters we have.

For us the key to breeding the Buffs is to integrate our Grey line to produce the Split ganders which we've achieved this year. Some will be paired back to Grey females and others to the Buff females so we can then produce some Buff ganders. Using line breeding we hope to produce Ganders of the same size and quality as our greys.

Here in the UK we're breeding for a very similar type tothose in North America but the following picture shows the key physical features of the type we'll be selecting for

I like your guide Pete! I've ordered some info. to study, but my buffs while maturing well, have a ways to go, as they are only 6 monthes old now. (I just found this thread)
