Yellow Emperor . he is cross too ,sired by Day Walker BLTB over Shiva BC hen .
Yellow Emperor is ER /EWh . s+/s+. Db/db+ . the dark brown gene turned him to yellow .
every thing about this rooster is correct .no complain at all .he will be mated to his half sister and his Dam too .
in this line I m blinding the old Oz line with 2016 import BTB line. my friend did the first crossing 5 years ago than I bought his flock and I added BC/Solid black to them to improve the eggs color and maintain a big body type .

Blue moon .Liza s line .BLC rooster 13 months old .solid body type short on his feet .great body pattern but his back is short and tail is open with high angle . the size of the tail is good .
have no plain of breeding him .
Liza s line have short back and high tail .so it is no point for me to keep them pure . all ready crossed them to the import line and I have better cockerels .
