I should sell eggs but all but a few pens are single mated so by the time I get more than 6 or so they're not the freshest. I would have to do multiple strains if I was gonna do it I guess

What breeds of game birds do you guys have ? I got leiper , Chet , jap , Kent mug , and some greys

 

[flypen]

Too many! Bennett Greys, Bennett Blueface, Murphys, CC Kelsos, Typewriters, and Butchers. I have a pair of Rubles and a pair of Pennys sent to me last year that I don't know what I'm going to do with yet

The Butchers were a gift to me in '83 from the guy that started me in gamefowl, what bloodlines they are was never talked about from him. To many questions would make him stop talking about gamefowl period. The Murphys were gifted to my brother in the early 90s. Both families are originally from South Louisiana.

Those are originally northeast shortheel fowl that's why I asked . Your typewriters are a breed not heard about much anymore . How long have you had them ?

Well M. Marsh still talks about the short heel days, I know for sure what these do. The same man gave me a pair of Typewriters a couple years later, I lost all the pure ones to some dogs a few years later. Then a couple years ago I was talking to a friend about some crosses we use to make and he told me his father had them in Tennessee

I'm the same way, the history is endless, and being able to sit down with a few old timers every now and then is a rewarding experience.
