Beautiful heads on those birds!

Pretty sure it's not, what I remember is a hen with heavy markings and maybe a little too much white, but excellent chevrons, (I think they're called chevrons) and very good type. I'll look for one of Lynne's postings just to make sure.

I think I know which bird you are thinking of. I think it is "Tango", owned by someone who recently got out of the project too but kept her b/c she couldn't bear to part with her. Does the name Tango sound familiar?

Say, I just sold this little Blue Mottled pullet. Any thoughts on her type?

The name Tango doesn't sound familiar, but the comment "kept her b/c she couldn't bear to part with her" does. I remember thinking it was too bad she wasn't going to be bred anymore. Is Tango the screen name? I went through some of the Mille Fleur thread last night and still couldn't find her. I give up, but this kind of reinforces the point about there not being very many true MF.

Tango is Gail's hen

Tango is on page 1207 or 1206 of this thread. Absolutely gorgeous. Posted by Coopa Cabana I think.

Ah yes, Gail Carlson. I thought she was hers. I'll try to find the pic & repost it here.

 

[Funky Feathers]

Ah, here she is.

I love her too.

Whew!! So glad to have that cleared up, I was beginning to think I was imagining things. All of those hens, Gail's bird, Lynn's birds and yours Stephanie are great additions to this struggling program.
I hope that someone is out there working in that direction.

Here is the same pic, edited. Doesn't it look cool?

And yes, I hope so too. A guy named John Kulpa in Michigan got most of my flock. A nice lady named Kelley Sheiss in IN got Mellie. I hope someone is working with Gail's flock too.
