Pretty hard to see because of the pic size, but they look to be nice ones.

Take a look at A. T. Hagan's post at the bottom of this link. They're DCs from Sands [i.e. S & S Poultry].

My DCs came from stock that were never artificially inseminated, but good enough to win some shows for their breeder. I did get the impression that she sometimes had problems getting chicks, but fertility and hatch was 100% on the eggs that produced the juveniles I picked up.

These are some cockerals from this years breeding. They are a bit grainy sorry. These all bred naturally and the mother was a proven winner from the breeder I got her from.

I am looking for another cockeral and pulllet to breed back. Hopefully locally shipping is spendy.

Here is my dark cornish, Gertrude. She is an amazing layer. The first 6 months we had her, she laid an egg a day. Even through a freak blizzard and a freak heat wave!

that looks like a bantam to me... and like you said in the first sentence... it's a bantam. My cornish LF birds are the grouchiest in the pen... they pick on everybody...

Yes...she's a bantam, I know.
Are you saying Bantams are always nicer than LF's? Because that certainly hasn't been my experience with bantams.
I wanted to know if LF Cornish were as nice as this particular bantam Cornish. I see yours aren't though, I hope that's not always the case.

Of all the chicken breeds that I have had over the years I have found as a rule that LF Cornish tame down faster than any other breed I have ever had.
