    If she carries the dun gene she'd show it, and look like an odd brownish blue, which then her chick would look identical to her. If not, that's just a light blue. It appears from here that it has a brown cast to it, but, you'd be the better judge. Very neat looking chicks though. Are they...

    Every Philippines based game I've seen is some form of American or at times, Cuban or Spanish game. Honestly you see their stuff and they label them the same we do - Yellow Legged Hatch, Kelso, Roundhead, Leiper, Mclean, etc. But, that's just from what I've seen/heard.

    The gene for a vaulted skull is recessive, but the actual topknot/crest is dominant. That's why it can still pass on to outcrossings, however in most cases only 50% of your outcrossed offspring or even purebred, just with a bird without the topknot, will end up with such. The way to get 100% is...

    Wow, he's quite nice and broad! Are you going to dub him?

    The silver male sounds like a gray, there's plenty types of those but some just call any gray a gray. The blacks and the description of a lot of leg and neck, not sure. Cuban and Spanish Games have a lot of leg, but throw in any more leg or neck and you're looking at Oriental crosses. Nice...

    I've not sold anything in quite a while actually as I just got myself back into painting again. I definitely do take requests though. I'm "bouncing back" into the business I guess I could say. My main interest for requests at the moment is covering supply cost. (of getting a new surface, then...

    Completely agreed on the Orientals. Even today's works to me just are too "fine of specimens," they are lacking the detail and gameiness to show the true hard feathering, muscling, etc. The old stuff like that one just make everything a bit too extreme. I'm working on a Ga Noi Don hen and a...

    Thanks all! It's Acrylic, but I use water often to get a smoother consistency with the paint. Don't hesitate though to "pick at," it's how I'll learn. I'll post more work probably tomorrow or something. I'm just so hesitant to upload any more now, seeing how poorly the color comes out...

    Okay, so after uploading I tried with all my might to get this photo to actually look just like the painting in real life, colors wise, but I just can't get it right, so as a notice - The colors here are not actually what it looks like in real life, but, this is the Leiper I've been working on...

    Apparently tomorrow, likely in the morning, as it is now late and nothing uploaded yet. The Leiper I'm working on is of the dark wine-colored type, which at least to me is the more ideal image of one. I've seen the lemons though, yes. Curious, should the legs be yellow or black? I've seen both...

    Surely! Toppys and Muffs both are ones I don't often find references for nor breeders/owners. For photos, I prefer ones taken at level with the bird (either the bird is on the ground or on the perch, both are okay as long as the view is not from above) No website up yet but I'll get some works...

    Then perhaps you can help me with a little project I'm doing different paintings of various lines of Gamefowl and one that peaks my interest and I'm almost complete with is of a Leiper cock. I search different forums and the sort for photo references but it would be great to actually know...

    Nice birds, especially love the Hatch crosses. Anyone here raise Leipers?

    Thanks for the replies I know they can vary, just need an idea of size. And, correct me if I'm wrong, but are Butchers often a little bigger? They appear so, but maybe it's just the fuller hackle and tail I see in most.

    I gotta ask, for you experienced breeders, about how much on average should I expect a Kelso or Sweater cock to weigh?

    I just have to say - The Leghorn in that video badly needs a dub job Josh, love the black one - Are you going to dub him? I think he'd be awesome looking dubbed. Is he a Warhorse or something else?

    Quote: I know exactly how you feel and just what damage you're talking about. My Shamo fought my Buff Ameraucana cockerel through the fence, the Shamo didn't get hurt at all but for a couple cuts on his feet that healed pretty fast - But the Buff Ameraucana's top beak broke, his face was a...

    Quote: Yes. And boy is it interesting to see the outcome. When I free-ranged my Shamos I had an Araucana hen running around loose, and one day she decided to brood some eggs of her own, I ended up with several Araucana x Shamos, one of them was tufted. None were rumpless though. Sadly a cat...

    Quote: Not a sebright. He is not hen feathered, he has hackle, saddle and sickles. He is a sebright cross, most likely on oegb. Actually a very nice bird, but he still shows the rosecomb. Actually he is a Sebright, just hatchery quality. LOTS of Sebrights from hatcheries aren't henny feathered.
