Really? Because previously in this thread itself, it was discussed for a good while with the vice President of the PBC that what said is the old standard, and in fact the proposal IS to be gold laced. I haven't seen ANY birds yet without lacing.



ETA - If it shouldn't be gold laced, then why are people using Gold Laced to cross out?

If it shouldn't be, they should focus on solid colored birds or red crested reds to eliminate the pattern gene.

You've just reminded me why I don't come here very often. And I have yet to see the standard written down that it should be gold laced, at least from a reputable source.

I think you should sell me some eggs so I can understand fully what you are saying. I have to experience things myself.

Lol, my roo and his hens are in VA with bob. He has indoor breeder pens for them. All I've got at my place is what I'm growing out for next year.

I purchased several chicks from Greenfire. I was somewhat disappointed. I recieved 3 GL chicks, one Orloff and 2 chicks that are what I would expect a Tolbunt to look like. The roo that has the correct coloring is a fragile bird. That is just my experience.

They sent you and Orloff???

Did you ask for a refund?

Has anyone considered outcrossing to a Mottled Houdan?

Seems logical to me...
