I've got 3 BLRW Roosters to choose from for my one Splash lady, All three men have great lacing in my opinion as well which makes this all the more difficult.
I'm wondering what the small details are on the judging of these birds? I've heard something about the golden hackle and saddle feathers... Are they frowned upon? I've got one Roo with the Gold hackles and saddles but the other two have the deep Red mahogany colored ones. Which is more preferred? And I think I'm gathering that the angle of the neck and tail are pretty important in the judging process? Is this true? Any good articles on this someone can share, or your thoughts are extremely helpful! Thanks in advance!
The first picture is one of my Roosters that has the more Deep Red coloring with mid blue to darker blue lacing,
the 2nd and 3rd picture are of my bigger Roo but has golden hackles/saddles and almost the same coloring.
