My Vadakorian Landrace Project Moving Forward

[chickengr]

So I got them today! Before I show you these hens up close, I'll admit I had suspected that these hens weren't pure phoenix. With the one hen being white and but one having yellowish legs I thought there was a good possiblity of white leghorns being mixed in there background, but yet... Here I am taking a closer look at them realizing two of the hens have what looks like pea combs!!! I thought the yellow legs and white plumage meant leghorn and yet that's seems to not be the case.

However I might be wrong, afterall Yokohama are incredibly rare here, but I can't help but wonder...

Anyhow I wanna know what y'all think? Perhaps the two with pea combs could be even better additions to the Vadakorian project! Afterall I think that adds in good genes for smaller combs and wattles which would remove the need for dubbing, idk

aseel maybe?

aseel maybe?

Oh yeah I didn't even think of that! Those are also pretty rare here but definitely possible
