See now, I have always been told that the 'fluff' at the base of the tail is a good thing??

Ok so i clicked on this post and there is a post reply button on the top and bottom of the page but i dont see a new post button. Am i doing it wrong?

Don't click on the post, click on the topic. In this case, the 'Breeds, Genetics, & Showing' in blue on the top of the page behind 'index'. If you want a different topic, hit the index and it will give you all the topics.

I'm not sure on large fowl but on BB red OEGB The winning birds in big shows will not have the fluff showing.Alot of birds do have it,and some do show with it.With BB reds there are alot more things to worry about other than a little fluff if you plan on winning consistently with them.They are tough to get right.

New blue babies I picked up today they were given to me as a pair not so sure
I know the back one is a roo front not sure

I know he is a roo but I liked this picture

Both roos and the front one in the first pic is a splash, not a blue. Splash is the 'pure' form of blue.
