YOU BREED THEM FOR SHOW?

Not in a long time.

That's cool. I hope to show mine when I get good at it. Only been breeding for 5 years, most of my teenage years. What varieties did you show?

 

[LilJoe]

So... was this a BO or a BPR?

 

[LilJoe]

Also... I love these things! Great idea

They sure should, but the Buff ones rarely do...I am going to become a breeder of them in the fall and want to work on bringing that trait back into them!

Buff ones rarely do?
If it’s the breed standard and they don’t have yellow legs then there is no point on having them.
Every buff Plymouth Rock I have seen had yellow legs.

I've been breeding chickens for a while now and I never knew that buffs had to have certain leg color I know some breeds won't be judged if they don't have the right patterns but never knew legs matter

Every breed has a leg colour and it does matter when you show them.
Eg. RIR- yellow, Wyandottes- yellow, Barbu d’Anver- Grey,

And we'll ive shown PB rirs before with grey leggs and they came 2nd in there category and I've shown leghorns with white legs and yellow legs and the ones with yellow legs done just as good if not better than the ones with yellow

Sorry white leg ones did almost if not better
