The Moonshiner's Leghorns

[Amer]

I'm gay, 34, and single. I don't have that much time to put into a project. lol

Did you just say you have a lot of time to put into a project?

 

[Painted Calls]

10/10 listening skills.

 

[Painted Calls]

Still not my type. Just makes me think of tumors or a mutilated wound

But you like Dong Taos.

Please make it make sense.

 

[JacinLarkwell]

But you like Dong Taos.

Please make it make sense.

Yeah, cause their cankles help distract from that ugly butt comb. I'd love if it was a big floppy comb

So you think a pea comb is uglier than their Lymphedema legs.

Absolutely

No I'm sorry, this is just not right. Even I find Dong Tao ugly, and I love aseel! You can't say that the Dong Tao isn't ugly, it's not possible. I can see a case being made about them being ugly beautiful, but you can't deny their ugliness. It's like saying a leghorn rooster with a floppy comb is better than one with a beautiful straight up one

Lol not while I’m trying to find a husband before I age out of the twink status forever. Lol no, no. I have enough project colors with the Orps. If someone shipped a box of Silver Leghorn eggs to my house I’d set them of course. But I’m not sure how long it would take to get birds as nice as those I posted. Realistically, how many generations are you thinking it would take?

And for curiosity’s sake, what about the Blacks and Whites?

If you would hatch large numbers and this is assuming you're using Leghorns, perhaps a hundred chicks hatched for two years, (the more chicks hatched the greater the selection.) I can see some decent color show up in F3. Combs would need one more year at minimum, but probably two years.
If you could find Leghorns with smallish combs you might be able to cut it down by one year. Even with doing what I just described it would be severely crunched timewise.
I just don't see anything good quality as a whole package in less than five years.
Moony might have a different opinion and if so, I yield my opinion to him.
