I have my fingers crossed with this boy. I like him so far. But at 6 months old alot can still not happen to knock him down a peg.
I am looking forward to hearing how you do. I think I read that you are taking Hoss, I really like to see some Blues do well at these shows. I like Hoss from what I can see in the pics. I think you can take Champion English. How many are showing? Should be alot of fun. Hope you do well!
gotziecat, I am no judge. From what I see, I like his comb. He seems to have decent type compared to many Lavs I seen. I don't see any issues with color. Ofcourse he could use a little width and depth. most all of our birds, APA or UK could use more of each. He looks like a good breeder to use. just take him to a big typeeeee Black pullet/hen and cull for size and type. Color should not be an issue for anyone doing lavs. Build the birds then paint on the good Lav color. Good luck with him and your Lavs.
Just went out and attempted to take some pics of the boys. I have two Blacks growing out in the pen with Leni. And one is Tralfamadore the other is DeBussy. Tralf is a bit bigger. neither are as big as Leni. But, their just about 6 months old. So, i still have to give them some time. Finally got an egg from their pen today.
Here are pix of the two Black boys in this pen. I am trying to get you Julie a front view or top view. Tralf is a weasel and only like to be on the other side of the pen. Camera shy I guess
Few pics of Feran. I am going to start this year out with Feran in with what I rate as my best Black girls.
