Hello! I was wondering if anyone could help me, I have a pair of bb red old english game bantam's and was wondering if there good quality, and if not what do I need to breed out? What should I look for?

The rooster had a comb got injured when he was a chick.

If you need better pic I can get them later
 
I agree that it shouldn’t flop over but if it is dubbed you wouldn’t be able to tell. A lot of birds at shows actually have some pretty bad combs but you can’t tell since they cut them off.
They are pet quality. The hackle and saddles of the male should be a deeper red and the sickles should have more curve. The breast is actually pretty nice but that’s about all. The neck should have more arch and the wings should be held tighter to the body. Overall, we want an alert and gamey look.
The female is hard to judge typewise but her coloring is weak. The breast color is uneven as is her shoulder.
Both have thin, weak beaks.
