Thank you guys it's nice to get some input! I've had them since hatch and I guess one can stare oneself blind on their pros and cons. You guys must be seeing something in the "cull" that I don't - don't worry he's safe till next year - maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised! If I could just get a perfect sideshot of Silvio, he does have more of a circle shape than shows at that angle in the pic...

Haha, and I didn't even notice she was in the pic myself
She does look rather like a mad old biddy doesn't she?
ETA:
The cull turned out to be a cull - his hocks turned inwards and grew narrower to the point that he had trouble walking.
Oh well, Silvio has filled out quite a bit (not quite as nice as Gulliver, but he's had a go at breeding and we'll see how his offspring turns out, 23 chickies live and well in the eggs due tuesday!)
