Wow, I had never heard of the Flarry Eyed breed. He was just trying to live up to his mother's heritage when he posed for that first photo. So I looked up the breed and here is some info for anyone else interested:
“Flarry” is the Irish word for “fiery,” and the word “flarry” reveals both the national origins of this breed and describes the bright red hue of this gamefowl’s eyes. In the late 1800s, Ned Gaven immigrated from his native Ireland and took up residence in Charlotte, North Carolina. He carried with him across the Atlantic a very usual keepsake: A few fighting fowl with bright red eyes and a rakish feather crest. For a century following his arrival his flarry eye greys were ceremoniously passed from one cockfighter to another, and these stewards of the bloodline took care to keep the flarry eye greys pure. In the mid-1900s a single hen was also imported from Ireland and she helped diversify the genetics of this variety in America. If you are seeking a gamefowldramatically unique in appearance, it is difficult to find a better example than a flarry eye grey.
