Italian National Poultry Championship Dec. 2018

[chickengr]

A lot of the birds at this show had the color description of Perniciata, which translates as partridge. These two Brahmas are listed as Perniciata Maglie Nere, (Maglie is sweater or mesh, nere is black, so I've translated it as black partridge Brahma. Is that correct for these two?)
The one on the left, in cage 251, scored S 90 (sufficient, 90 points) and on the right in cage 250 scored MB 93 molto buono 93 points). Both were from the same breeder, from a village just 11 miles outside Florence.

BTW, I had shared the hen in cage 251 back in post 15 of this thread.

Three Faverolles

A German Salmon Faverolle (Faverolles Tedesca Salmonata). He was scored B92
The Italians differentiate the German Faverolles from the original (French) Faverolles as being distinct varieties.

german faverolles are darker, french faverollers are silver salmon. in some countries wrong names have been used.

Is this also a Cornish, also known as Indian Game?

She has the right body shape, but I don’t know what that coloration would be considered.

 

[Gargoyle]

These two weren't bothered by the commotion or lack of a private nest.. when you gotta lay, you lay.
