You won't find any quality orientals that aren't easy to handle. If you got OG that like to manfight, I can assure you that they aren't worth owning. As far as americans go, they tend to be much higher strung, and even with some very good lines you will never get them to mellow out, no matter...
First off, no matter the breed, it's never a good idea to have multiple broodies housed together. Single pen them and it will work fine. They won't all go broody "on time", but you will get better chicks than using an incubator, so it is worth it in the long run.
It IS illegal to bring eggs in the country from outside the country, no matter the method. There is only certain countries you can legally import fowl, but you have to go through a very expensive ordeal to do it. You absolutely can't bring eggs on a plane with you. If you got away with it...
To me, it IS black and white, and exactly why it is so difficult to breed gamefowl. Once a bird is fully mature, there is never any kind of excuse to not be game. If I had a sick bird on my yard, it wouldn't get the chance to see if it was game or not, as it would be culled out. Moult...
I appreciate your willingness to try to help fowlsessed, but this statement has many problems with it. What type of show fowl are bred for has nothing at all to do with gameness. As I keep saying, either they are game, or they are not. Asil are some of the oldest gamefowl out there. There...

You see friend, that is exactly why you don't understand gamefowl, or gameness period. Everything you stated goes in line with what you have been stating, a natural selection process. This is why they aren't game, and never will be game as in "gamefowl". There is no hierarchy in...
I'm sorry JShubin, you don't own gamefowl by your own description. You are welcome to your own opinions, and I have no problem with that, but they are not gamefowl, and nobody who is experienced with true gamefowl would call them gamefowl either, even if they look the part. The misconception...
What you need to understand is there is only one type of game, either they are, or they aren't. With gamefowl they have been refined for strictly deep gameness and performance. This has literally nothing to do with natural selection, nor wild jungle type fowl. I can't speak on the birds you...
Well, that's all fine and dandy, but in my opinion it's inaccurate, and disrespectful to the breed when you don't breed for gameness, and still call them gamefowl. I could care less what people do with their own fowl, but don't be crossing a game chicken into an ee and call it a game. This is...
I'm sorry, but this statement is wrong on so many levels, I don't even know what to say. Also, you will NEVER get gamefowl by breeding into a non-game line...NEVER! You won't get gamefowl from hatcheries either. If some of you on here are truly serious about wanting to raise gamefowl, you...
All I know is that coloring is what you get in a hen is a hennie brown red coloring. Whether you get hennies off her or not, you will find out over time, but typically that is what hennie hens look like.
ACEE, I don't want to offend, as I don't know you or your fowl, but I can tell you there is no way young AG of the age those clearly are should be able to be penned together, especially that tight. As I said, no disrespect intended. BTW sebrightsrock, there is a huge difference between...
Well, the fact that you can keep males of that age together in the same pen should give you your answer. Like I said previously, a lot of people have been selling orange chickens with names attached to them to make a quick buck on the latest fad. It's unfortunate, as it's really been...
Well, unfortunately that's another strike against you on them being hulsey, as greenfire farms was not selling quality hulsey, they were were selling nothing more than orange chickens they called hulsey. Unfortunately the Hulsey fowl have turned been turned into a joke by people like this...
