As much as I love crested birds, they're rather ditzy.... That's part of the reason I'm breeding my own line from sultans- I want smart birdies.

Get some Appletini's! They are crested, sweet, calm and tough as nails.

Yeah... Didn'tcha see him? The silly was floating in the kiddie pool out back in his inflatable boat, pretending he was on his way to Australia...

I don't need a boat here I can walk on water today.

Beautiful birds Ralphie! Where did you find them?

How are they with disease and parasite resistance?

 

[BantyChooks]

I had looked into the Spitzhaubens previously, but never ordered them....

Time will tell on the disease and parasite stuff, so far they seem great. The only thing is I am waiting for my first egg from them.

The real name is a mile long, Silver spangled appehuaser spritzhaubers or something like that. I cannot pronounce it or spell it. but they are cool birds and the 30 below weather does not bother them a bit. Those Swiss breed tough birds unlike the Polish.

I found them when I was looking through hatchery websites, I don't remember where I ordered them from, I am hoping to develop some show birds from these, The sad part is they are not APA so they will never really compete with any other birds.

BUT with the little showing I have done with my Legbars it appears I am getting others interested in them so maybe I can do the same with these.

Beings there is no SOP I get to decide which ones are the best ones by my eye instead of that stinking book that causes me so much grief.

sorry, I mistook the kiddie pool for a punch bowl....

I can understand that, I sometimes feel like a punching bag myself, the way everyone takes cheap shots and sucker punches poor me around here when I am just minding my own business and not bothering anyone.

Ok.

I think you mean "Silver Spangled Appenzeller Spitzhaubens"

Yea, that's them! Appletinis is so much easier to say and remember.
