Their vision would be limited.

Are combs that large common?
All mine are fairly small compared to those...

My white when he was a little younger... it's a little bigger now, but not by much.

you can sure see why they call it a walnut comb!

DO NOT use this picture as an example for color, as he is a little too red...

But this is how I like my combs. Very small and compact.

That's the bird in the eggbid auction, right?

 

[Poulets De Cajun]

Yeah... but most of my roosters have combs like that, except for my buff. He has a big honkin one compared to the rest...

 

[LilPeeps]

About half of my roosters have combs like that.

That lav bird's really nice, I would bid on him, but I'm looking for a black based lav or split lav.

Thank you for the *lovely* examples

of what could have been...Now it wont be as hard to look on him

And it was helpful to see what they should (or could) be so when they have babies, we can "upgrade"

. Having browsed around a bit, if I could have any, I think I like the splash. We have a white hen, and a black roo. Their two chicks are black. Will they always have black? How soon can you sex them???
