Post Phoenix Pics Please

[Nickeyo]

Well yes I understand the part of bred in Europe, but I have read in most of the books over here in England that the Yokohama was bred for ceremonial fighting as well.
I know about the part where they were brought over from japan and fiddled with in Germany and that area whee they decided that the yellow legged pea comb variety would be called the yokos and th slate legged single comb are the Phoenix etc

Yokos may have, I don't study or follow them, just correcting the phoenix part being used for fighters. They most certainly have never been bred for that

Yokos are descendants of Minohiki , a Game Japanese breed crossed with European breeds.. The UK lumps the Phoenix and Yokos together even though they are different breeds with different origins , with the Phoenix coming down from the Onagadori and European breeds. This leads to confusion.

That's kinda what I thought too but wasnt sure on the yoko. Didn't think pea comb come from the phoenix creation. Minohiki makes much more since . I did know pretty much all long tails in the UK were called phoenix though, and yes that can and does cause some.confusion in forum discussions to
