what breed is this little roo?

[hdowden]

yes the red an black with the green sheen looks like an oegb that hasnt been dubbed. if you knew the age it would better help iditentfy him but as you are unsure its the best guess i have. he looks like a black brested red

http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/Games/GameBantams/BRKOEGBantams.html about middle ways down there is one that has been dubbed and yours looks a lot like him

I am less than a yearling with chickens and although I am the most knowledgeable of all my friends... (which isn't saying much) you lost me with those initials. Can you tell me what those things mean? I learn something new every day.

As I was getting ready to post, I saw hdowden's post... I have now figured out Black Breasted Red.

The other two that were caged with him... may not mean anything... but they still had white fluff on their backs so I assumed they were pretty young yet. I could be wrong and usually am, though.

HQ= hatchery quality
PQ= poor quality
That is just what is referred to if the bird does not appear SQ= show quality. I don't show mine but plenty other on here do. So, they would be better judges of quality. I personally own what would be referred to as HQ and/or PQ, but to me they are fabulous and nothing less.

He is a Blabk Breasted Red Old english game bantam, or B.B red OEGB for short.
