Hi there. I’m finding myself in the same spot. There are a few breeding/showing books out there, but I haven’t seen them myself.

I’d like to see a little darker color as well. These are some basic things. I’m sure an expert could make a far better critique of both our birds.

Hi there. Yes, I still think he’s on the larger side. At least I think so.

Ok. How about a pic with someone holding him?

Dubbing is the funnest thing. I hit my younger brother to do the operating while I guided him. Turned out not bad. Wish I had left a little bit more over the top.

We dubbed our 5 month old cockerel a few weeks ago. He’s looking pretty good. I’m hoping his tail widens a little as he keeps growing.

Look good. Again, im no judging expert so talking to someone experienced is always best. The roosters in the first two pics may be a little larger than I would prefer, but I cant say that with too much confidence since they stand by themselves.

I will. Thanks.

I have not, but I can see how that would be much more ideal.

I’ve never done it before. Everything we’ve sold is normally picked up locally. Probably around 60 - 75 dollars for the three.

LOL we’re down in Montgomery Tx north of Houston.

In fact we do have a trio of bantams available: that same cock and two other hens. @Yard Farmer, where are you located?

We have our flock all currently in one big coop. They free range just about all day. We plan to raise numerous other quality breeds this year. Check out our website at lonestarchickenfarm.com

I suppose it’s hard to judge birds without seeing them present before you. Do you know where your birds come from? I learned that it is immensely helpful to begin with birds that are close to the standard (from a reputable breeder).

The first pic is our first cockerel so far. He hasn’t reached his prime yet. Hoping to keep developing and sell from our line in the future.
