That couldn't be, Beth. The guy in the picture looks much to young to be a grandpa. Must be his son-in-law.

I don't know who needs glasses more you or Kathy.
Ever since I posted those pics on CL I'm getting all sorts of weird e-mails wanting to know if I'm single.
and do I go with the chickens?
and do I have my own Hova-round
I'm so old when I eat in a resturant they ask me to pay up front.
There are worse things than getting old I just can't remember what they are.
A good thing about getting old is you get alot of care, eye care, day care, health care, long term care..................

Tim! You have a cookie-duster! Sorry, I couldn't resist.
That Oliver is a chunka-roo, isn't he? He's just so dang broad!
ndemerly, the rooster's tail is a bit on the light side-the black should predominate over white in the tail barring . He has nice hackle color, yellow legs. Can't really see the comb to count points or I'd comment on that. Can't really see the hen very well, though.

Cyn, question for you on your assessment of this roo. To my (very untrained) eye, he looks young yet, but appears to have good type. Is this a correct assessment? (just trying to learn here) Will the tail color darken as he gets older or does that not change? (again, trying to learn) I can certainly see the difference in tail color (mainly lacking the solid black in his tail) when compared to Kathy's boy.
ndemerly.......I think he's beautiful, I'm not trying to insult him by any means, I just want to learn what the desired type is. I realize nobody has the perfect bird. I hope I don't offend you by asking this.

Kelly,
The tail on my Oliver has too much black. It should be:
TAIL: Main tail -- showing irregular indication of black and white barring, black predominating.
It should be black and white barring (though black predominating), no solid black nor solid white.
