Saipan Jungle Fowl

[Doodle_Doo]

i just got two saipan chicks born last week and ive seen them as adults but ive looked around
and not many have info on them or its vary sacarce..anyone here have any of this breed and know
about their temperament or way of being ie had shamos and was told they are pretty much the same
but not complete just want to see others opinions and experiance with them

They are what many consider just an asian game with a different name, like shamo,asil,brazil,thailand. I found them to be more on the gentile birds, said to be the biggest of most chicken breeds, my old saipans didn't grow much. They were also very genetically weak.

There is not a whole lot of information about them out there. From what I understand pure Saipans are nearly non existent and most are crossed with Shamos, Asils, Malays ect....This is pretty interesting if you have not already seen this
