I’ve gotten pretty far but I think I still have a ways to go. It’s been about 7-8 years and I’ve gone through thousands of birds but I’ve made progress. I’m trying to make a breed that looks like a Black Bekisar except cold hardy, fertile and calm/domeatic. I’m trying to get long tails on them...
This bird is part of a breeding project that I have going right now. I’m not actually trying to make Satsumadori…I just want a small molar body and tail for my project birds.
From what I recall importing from countries where it is legal (some European countries and some in Aouth America) will cost at least $1,000 per egg or $10,000 for a few birds (like a trio). When you import eggs the transportation will reduce the percentage of eggs that hatch. You are paying for...
The thing is…disease really comes from agriculture/domestication/humans living in societies. Sure…there are natural wild diseases but generally those are either mild or they burn out quickly. Generally the diseases that we have in humans and livestock comes from people and domestic animals...
A few years back we had a VERY warm winter all the way into December. Then a cold spell hit and it was like throwing a switch from summer to winter and I lost all my pure Grey and Ceylon Jungle Fowl and most of my high percentage crosses. They had all survived much colder temperatures in the...
Right. And f he had fibro he’d look like your example…a little spot of blue. Do you have an example of dark blue on red? Not light…like blue/white? Because that’s what I’m saying. Blue is fibro on white. No white it’s just black/red. If it looks blue it’s on white. Can you show me a bird with a...
I think when you see they it’s still a white earlobe…just not a good one. You’ll see white earlobes like that without the blue sometimes…just a little white.
I like that tail! That’s one of the downsides of the pure Asian Games is even if they have a bit of tail the angle ruins it. Somewhere on-line there’s a picture of a bird with just the most spectacular tail I’ve ever seen on a chicken. Matter-of-fact…it’s on my library somewhere stolen off of...
Not likely pure Red Jungle Fowl. Most of the birds sold as pure Reds are crosses. The only pure strain are the Richardson Strain and only the lines that were very meticulously maintained. A lot of people have “San Diego Zoo Strain” and they were abandoned by the zoo because too many people kept...
