He looks way better in this picture.@duluthralphie I snapped a better picture of him a bit more relaxed (as best as I could) and not all tensed up like the first picture. Don't know if this is a better shot of the actual angle of his tail.

The hackles and saddle feathers are a better match than I first thought. He appears to be a wide body. I like that. Still could use a little more length. Try mating him to hens with nearly flat tails. The angle is still high but no longer squirrel looking.
This ear lobe is perfect in shape and color, IMHO.
Some people (looking@Bantambird) do not like the white tail feather. I do not mind them if they show barring. This one seems too. Keel and breast is a tad flat, but to be expected on a cockerel of this age. Overall a good bird.
