X 2 !!!!Black Panther when I got the chance to get a trio of these birds brought in from Canada I had two people to choose from. One with some large fowl experience but did not take the care of the birds as well as Scott. Sometimes your choice is how did they raise their feed store birds rather can they raise fancy Standard Breed H chickens. The proof was it worked and we worked togeather
and in three years look at the results. One day someone is going to show a nice female and get on Champion Row somewhere.
Now the next step is don't be afraid. We have been down this path and you just breed for shape or type the first few years as a beginner. Just say yes. You will not regret it That's why we are here to help you nubies. Where you a lurker once? Now you are a poster. No you need to be a foster parent for a rare H breed.
Scott and Bob and (many more peeps on this and other threads) on here can mentor you through, I would bet
