Wow! I'm now interested to see how much feather loss occurs on the head as it matures! No sign of a casque forming? Keep the updates coming, this is very interesting

Yours? Are you buying it? can you guys in the usa import from Asia? I was told by a vet that no hybrids like that live over 12 months so its going to die, sad! still you can force the chook and guinea to mate over and over to get more

Yeah I was wondering the same! No casque that I can see as yet, they sound very much like young chickens but in alarm they have a sound that more guinea like.

Its good to see many from overseas right into hybrids and not pure fowls, in Australia hybrid breeders are not liked and are avoided but its cool they are in Asia and the usa
