too much rain all the work stopped on the new farm. I ll get there one day or another .
the comb has to be managed in both sexes Hen and Cock.
for me because I don t show .the comb is the last thing in my selection.
here the order of selection I fellow ;
1) dark egg.
2) type.
3) mass
4) head ,eyes. comb
5) hackle and body color ( variety color pattern )
6) feet, feathers and color .
7) over all health and resistance to disease .
8) uniformity
9) keeping them dual purpose .mean 180 large eggs per year per hen and a heavy weight plus testy meat ( marans flesh is classified Haute Game . cream de la cream .with la Breese and la Flech both French breeds )
like this I know what I m doing and where I m at in my breeding program .
I just don t cull the chook because is faulty . I only cull when I don t see a way to correct the fault or I have a better subject .
