Cornish Thread

[Rhode Island]

I prefer using the name Indian Game since thats what i first heard the breed being called. My aunt lives on a 3000 acre farm. Mostly it is used for sheep and wheat but she also has some chickens on it. She breeds many breeds and used to go to chicken auctions. I got Haysha (my plymouth rock) and Peri Peri (my indian game) from her. Haysha has sadly been given away because he was a rooster and Peri Peri died. They were my two favourite chickens : ( But now i have got some new ones! : )

Thanks for the kind words about my Cornish trio. I can't take any credit, good or bad as I was fortunate to have found and purchased these birds. So far, I'm liking them a lot. From what I'm reading, they may have to stay penned and separate from the rest of my roo breeds. Am I correct in my assessment?

Isn't Cornish the more modern name for Indian Game? Anyone know?

The term cornish is an American thing, they are still called Indian Games in Europe from my understanding.

Ooh! I like these three best! Are they the same bird?

Is this a special photography booth? Great idea!

"Indian game" would not fly around here.. It would have to be " First Nations game" ...... "Indian" in my neighbourhood is not a good word to use with four bands within 10km. Cornish is what I am running with.
