Sumatra Thread!

I got my sumatras from strombergs and if I remember correctly they do breed for SQ

ok , so I looked strombergs up and they breed their ornamental fowl to conform to APA standerds

We got three Sumatra at the same time off a straight run. One turned out to be a very smart blue Sumatra (named Gandalf) and the other two are beautiful black Sumatra (who fly over 6 ft fence without a problem). I'm pretty sure the two black Sumatra are cockerels based on the long thin feathers on the back. Am I right? Hate to send him/her away though bc this one needed a lot of care as a chick.
