CSU - Chicken State University- Large Fowl SOP

[cluck-cluck]

Is the spangled color variety available in large fowl? If not, that's too bad because those bantams are so beautiful!

BTW, I finally ordered my sop, so I'll be able to answer my own question soon, LOL.

Good for you!! I'm waiting for Christmas again . . . wanted the SOP last year for Christmas but DH bought me a set of christmas chinaware-- still don't know what he was thinking.

I'd rather have the SOP than a set of China . . . . no rings either . . . . lol

Quote: Spangled, Speckled or Laced? Which breed were you discussing?

The Cornish?? Large fowl, does it come in spangled like the bantams? Those are just stunning!

The APA website has this information readily available.

I hesitate to just cut and paste from the varieties of Cornish section as I do not have permission to copy.

Ah, lovely!

Can anyone post pictures of their spangled? Or any more Cornish?. Also, what makes the Cornish so hard to raise?

Page 294 of the latest Standard. I sponsored the male and had it done by Katherine Plumer. The fellow I go to shows with sponsored the female. (Bob Jones).

Here are some bantam pics. I don't think I have any more LF pics..











The male on top has his wing down for some reason...it is not that way normally.....or he would be in the soup. As we know it is hard to get good pics of chickens.

So pretty, too bad the LF don't come in spangled, I find that to be so pretty But that's ok, the white laced reds are just as beautiful

Is the bantam with black lacing on what looks like reddish brown the "dark"?

The white laced reds are the ones that did it for me!
