I didn't get to go to the show, but I got a gander from Jean as well. He couldn't wait to get into the pool after all that traveling

He looks lovely and you must be very pleased with him. I like his type and quilting to the breast feathers - congratulastions

Thanks Pete! He's pretty friendly too. I haven't picked up a gander in a while (besides the toulouse) and I was surprised how lightweight he seems. All that fluff is deceiving!

I'm hoping he'll make some nice babies with my smoothe girls. I still don't know what to expect there.

We waited ages to find the right Sebastopols for us and only recently acquired them but did a lot of reserch before. Got lots of information from CottageRose which helped enormously. Now we're showing them for the first time at our National Show this weekend! Its the Smooth breasted which are more common in the UK so we were pleased to find a nice curled female

There was already a comment about my birds being too big. I know they are right on for size, so thanks for posting about the weight.

Patti Z also thought they were big when we were talking at the show and I told her to pick up my best young gander and she was shocked to find he was mostly fluff. This is what good conditioning and breeding does!!!!!

I hope that boy can get some good curl going in your flock.
