Some one wrote this
"Normally we breed them for fighting but also sometimes for the event&show as well,"
FIGHTING???????? Thats not legal,

here anyways, but I dont think its legal anywere :O
Does anybody else find this shocking???????? :O :O
Heres the link : https://www.backyardchickens.com/breeds/old_english_game/36082

I do not find it shocking but it must be removed. I'll either edit it myself or contact the creator at once. Thanks for the heads up.

eta: taken care of

Please remember every one of these pages will be looked over before they are approved. ..so, we may not see things right away but, we'll get to it.

Also, once they are approved, there will most likely be another look see by upper management to make sure everything is perfecto before this database takes over the old one. We appreciate everyones help notifying us of such issues and feel free to PM either myself of Allaboutdemchicks with any concerns.​

I agree, those are not old english game. They appear to be an oriental type fowl.

I didn't realize that you couldn't go back and add more pictures on the simple breed pages once they were submitted. Is there any way to do that?

 

[Msbear]

Katy, you can copy and paste all of your info to a new page and we can delete your old one

Dustin, thanks again for the catch on that OE page. The creator is new to byc but I've contacted them through email and pm.

Just another thought for the Main breed page. I personally think there should only be one page per breed, all others should be linked within that one breed. For someone who knows nothing about chickens, the multiple pages for the same breed could be very confusing. Also, I would like to suggest having a different page for each variety. I know that could be time consuming, but it is possible. If I can be of assistance in anything with this project, let me know. I can do research on nearly any breed, plus know breeders of a variety of birds who I can probably get pictures from to help with this project. I think if this thing is going to be as successful as intended to be, it needs to be user friendly. JMHO

Good idea! I also think there should be a thing on the page saying if the bird comes in bantam and standard, instead of making two pages one for standard and for bantam because almost every bird comes in bantam and standad.​

The pages were are gathering now have not yet replaced the old system. We are still editing, approving, adding, etc. We will, most likely, select the first page created for each breed as the "Main Page" All other pages under that same breed will have to either be deleted or re-done as a simple page. Furthermore, the simple pages are for each variety of that breed. There will be link on the main page to each of these "simple pages" so, everything you want, Dustin... you will get!!

I finished my Polish Page, but just today I saw that someone elses name was on the list...

I really like how easy it is to make a breed page, and urge people to try it. The only thing I can think of that could be added, is standard weight of the bird.
