I thought I would post this picture because it hasn't happened here before.
This is Tyle. He's the offsring of an Old English Game great grandmother and a Marans great grandfather rooster.
He looks very game fowlish. He has a completely different stance to the other roosters. He has the crease down his chest. He's got the neck length as well. His great grandmother didn't look particularly game fowlish so I assume these genes have surfaced from generations further back.
Game fowl in general have the reputation here of being aloof for want of a better description. Most are considered to be relatively easy for humans to handle. I get such an impression from Tyle. There is something different about his reactions to me that I don't know how to describe.
Anyway, there you go. Tyle, almost a game fowl.
