X2Why is it that most roosters now have short tails. My legacy we did a quick measurement today and his tail is almost 3 feet long. He has no game bird in him, and no long tail breeds in him he is just an old fashioned breed from way back in the 1920's that originated from Maine. I can't believe the differences in the old breeds and the breeds they have these days. It use to be that people prized their roosters for their tails I guess not so much any more??? In fact I was shocked at my Delawares little tail, over a year old and its puny. Tomorrow I will add his picture in here as well as my little Mexican rooster, both have long tails. maybe I can get my son to hold Stormy while I hold the little man next to him. Huge difference in size but both carry that tail that we all loved when we were younger.
If manliness use to be judged by the tail of a rooster then the newer breeds are only half the man that the old breeds use to be.
