roo #2





thanks

They are both really nice =) I like roo #1 the most, he has nice balance and body carriage. Check his wings though. They look like they may be slipped a bit. Pull them out and check for gaps. He may just be holding them loose because of the girls. His comb is a bit light, but it might just be the lighting. I would show them both and see which one does better =)

Could be, what do the tops look like? Are the scales raised and crusty? You can spray them with permethrin 10 and then coat them in vaseline. I coat mine daily to help loosen up the crud and make sure all the mites are suffocated.

Thanks, I am planning on showing them next year. And ok I will check them, are you talking about like split wing?

What kind of a mix is that smooth feathered bird behind this rooster? Silkie x Cochin maybe?

Looks like a smooth sizzle. Cochin crossed with silkie to get sizzle, but has smooth feathers. Have one and he's gorgeous.

That's what I was thinking.
