Above is 5th generation from almost nothing. I acquired a poorly barred cockerel from someone who was getting out of serama, may even have been an old english/serama cross. That bird was mated to a black serama hen and produced several chicks one a cockeral who's barring was better than dad. Mated him to a black hen and got several pullets who I mated back to the dad, selecting the better barred birds and again mated to black. Above birds is from a brother/sister mating, both barred
Thanks for sharing Jerry!!!! Your words means alot.
Kate, good questions!!! I hope this will clear up all the arguments we had with one on how to get a variety to breed true.
