Question on OEGB brown/red roo PICS ADDED

[Judy]

If you're not planning to show, why worry about what is closer to type? Keep the one you like.

Or both, of course.

"For the breeding standard i would say the one with the solid black chest. but for fun i would say laced.

I honestly like the more laced roo, I may keep both since I will have 3 or 4 hens as long as they continue to get along. Their more or less pets but I do sale the eggs so I want to keep something that I could sale...

While I am not one of those who believes that there are no stupid questions, yours is not stupid

Crowwing- color pattern in game breeds-as in Lemon and Silver blue, Brown red and Birchen. For the most part they have laced breast, black stripe in the hackle, and no wing bay color only the bar.

Shafting-the middle shaft of the feather is not colored like the rest of the feather, it is usually the color of the lacing.

Mealy- grainy- not the finely laced feather. The color goes into the webbing

If you are selling eggs just make sure that you refer to them as PET quaility.

I think you meant crowwing, not duckwing? Duckwings are characterized by a wing triangle that matches hackle colour, and a clear breast, not a laced one.
Not sure about the shafting, but I think that it is generally to be avoided except in a few specific varieties?

Yep I meant Crowwing, like I said in my other post.

Shafting is not generally to be avoided, but kept completely out of your breeding pens if you want to get rid of it. It is a defect in Crowwing color patterns

Well if they where raised together they probably will get along.. that just depends.
Good luck!
