very nice group shot, have you got one with them on flight?

 

[fowlsessed]

No don't have one with them flying. I lost my new light grizzle hen!!!!!! I dont know what happened, she just wasn't there when I checked on the birds, I'm so mad. She just happened to be my favorite hen, not to mention her parents were direct from sweden and the guy paid like $100 for her.

I got a new pair of horseman that i really like. the cock is the rare powder blue and the hen is almost identical to the one I lost. Also, the cock has won reserve champion before. I'll post some pics later.

I have flown horsemam for about four years. Havehad birds from all over. Traded many birds at the Louisville ky young bird show. We had about 40 birds in the show last year. I had the 2nd highest scoring bird on a ash yellow grizzle.
I fly all my young birds out of roller kit boxes.To me Silision pouters are the same as horseman but have nicer colors and fly just as good.i also like the bigger bird. Much moreimpressivein the air. All are good at dodging hawks.
Will post some pictures when i get back from vacation.

here are the birds. and ghulst, how big is the weight/size difference? the silesian seem very rare? I think I like the Horseman's look a little better than the silesian though from the pics I've seen, can't wait to see your birds. do you have a side by side pic of the two breeds? And who won first at the louisville show? Do you happen to know Joe Alarcon? I believe he shows at that show, I got all my birds from him (all his birds come from Alan Biliven).

Back from vacation. Very nice pictures . I have to figure out how to but pictres here. Will figure it out soon.

I guess I never posted on here that the hen in the last pic got pulled trough the wire and her head chewed off....she had just gone on eggs too.

Just got 5 horsemans from rising moon loft in Cal. I will post pics of the birds and the new loft tomorrow. There is a pair of grizzles,grizzle cock,dun check grizzle hen and a cream bar hen. Also have a pair from Alan Blivan. That pair is a silver cock and ash red hen. They just hatched two babies. Looks like it will be a black and a white baby.

Thanks
