Post Phoenix Pics Please

hate to hear you lost your baby there Micheal, at least you have some of her offspring to continue with...

yep that one got 28 inch saddles on the ground in breeding pens this year. and tons of them, he does have a nice supper thick rear end.

The main thing special about them is they are untouched blood wise, basically they arent related to any USA blood lines. Each line is a little different too. So the biggest attraction is the addition of totally and truely new blood to our breedings. And they have a little different look about them. Feather wise, they are awesome, but dont carry any non molting traits or anything like that.

All in all, they are both beautiful lines of European phoenix, with great feathering traits, and new blood to be used in with American lines.
You can go either way with them, bantam or large fowl. I made my bantam blacks off the 7+ pound black Schuberts. Toni has done the same with all her birds too.

Ahhh Interesting!
I would love to add some new lines into mine in a few years
AND SADDLES!

Pics pleaseee

Can someone explain to me Ismer & Schubert Lines ? Please?

Here is a picture of one of my pure Ismer birds. His tail got to 60" at the longest.. His saddle is now around 24" maybe a little longer.

Beautiful!
Does he have NM genes?

I can answer that one, No. the two lines in a pure form dont have nm genes. They just get really nice tails and saddles.


ended up being off today so gone try to get a pic of that Ismer hen for you. It's been raining and nasty since noon yesterday here, so just waiting on a break in the weather

just got in from the pic taking for you too. It's still drizzleing rain here so there's no light out for a good pic, so here's a few just to show you at least. She normally carries her tail at a much lower angle, she was PO ed that I got in the pen with her and was tring to isolate her for the pic.


You can see for a girl she's got pretty good hooks on her legs



You can also see, this one has a much larger wattle than normal, aside from color, you'd swear body type she was a roo.


Just one of her next to a normal hen to see the difference. Note how she even has a cock style stance to her compared to the normal hen.


I've got one of her that Toni sent me from her first year when she was still up there. It shows her good cockerel feathering as a pullet, but it's not wanting to load for some reason.

But anyway, that's what the average cockerel feathered pullet grows in to in most cases.
