My yellow leg "Gamer" over a hatch hen. He looks a lot like your Kelso/hatch... I have them in the pens next to eachother, but this one is about a month younger.
See that kelso/hatch is a Typical Mexican style cross bird. But I wouldn't be scared to use in American either. All hypothetical of course. Now kelso/whitehackle is what my mentor favored in American
Do any of you use something to stop the bleeding when dubbing?
What is a typical weight range for cock birds in Americans. I saw a bird listed for sale that was just shy of 3 pounds. Not sure if he was actually American, but looked the part...
