International Black Copper Marans Thread - Breeding to the SOP

[Chooks man]

I missed this cockerel when culling/photographing. He will be culled this weekend unless you see some reason he should stay. A lot of their tails look shabby because despite my efforts they choose to roost in stupid places instead of the hen house.

he is not at his best .but I can see few good thing in there .
I really like his shoulder pattern ,will be complete for sure before maturity . like his comb too . hears tufts copper .
Split Hackle I m not worry about it .it is a complete shoulder pattern I m trying to find in your cockerels .
if you have a space than keep him for 2 more months and see ,how his shoulder pattern goes .

The only concern I have with him is his tail angle. He is still young now and not crowing. I suspect his tail will creep on up higher as he matures.
