  6. Thank you general lee and uk ,I welcome any constructive critasisim duckwing because what is to be learned from some one who only agrees with you because he has no knowledge of his own .lets just kee p to poultry chat and then we can all get along . Please leave the traveller/gypsy bit out and carry on.with reference to the breed being mixed with asil and other types I agree entirely but since I have had these birds I haven't put none in, I have used an American hatch in my duckwings about 7years ago, but I don't know the full breed history of him ,I used him because he was a handsome bird w

  8. After a constructive and informative reply why spoil it with the traveller dig. Be told now on open forum keep your opinions about travellers to yourself I find them offensive and arguementive . Some people have cast assumptions about you which may or may not be-true to be honest I don't really care . If you if you can't be nice then don't contribute to any of my posts. If you want to pm me and swap numbers I am only to willing to discuss this with you.
  9. Nice bird ,strong type ,I like him atb basil
  10. I can assure one and all that there is no Carlisle blood in my stock and I think that any one who thinks they can see Carlisle blood in that stag is sadly misguided .i have been to the midlands and can honestly say that I have never seen a Carlise type or cross in there. In answer to duckwing about American blood in Oxford English ,that is a well known fact but what I was saying was I did not know the full breeding of the white legged cock and could only guess so it would not be something I would breed from. And with regards to the width of chest ,to my. Knowledge an English cock was always b
  11. Thank you duckwing for your comments as for showmans type I don't think these would fair well in the show pens that I have been to as they are broader in the chest than the show types that I have seen.but all said I like them and have had these dark legged black reds for quite a few years and I am very pleased with them. If a fault I was going to pick I would say that most of them make 6 lb as an average and some I have now are over that .but like I say they please me and look good walking about my paddocks and yard. Atb basil
  12. In my opinion the show of white in my cocks wing is a traight from the butcher line.
  13. Thanks for the comments c.m.i have heard that as well uk and I would like to think that the well maintained pure breeds of today still hold the same traights as their forefathers , but I believe that as in all sports and breeding things progress and things improve and over the years the original lines are but a memory of their former self. But that is just my opinion atb basil.
  14. You may well ask c,m . When I was given this bird I was told he was o.e.g with white legs but when he was delivered it was obvious that there was a definable presence of American blood which I thought was butcher due to the shape of his body and the roundness of his tail, I have kept and crossed butchers in the past and the looked very similar in their station as the bird in the picture.i believe that my friend experimented with a butcher x his o e g black red with dark legs to see the out come for his self , I don't dislike this bird by any means but he is not for my breeding pens due to the
  15. Nice little pair and I bet your little girl loves them. Lots of pleasure to come from them I guarantee and all for a pittance . Atb basil
  16. I thought butcher in there somewhere uk but we will see how he progress's , needs a little bit of t,l,c to get him feeling good in himself in my opinion. Thanks basil
  17. The point is 13 is not 18 or even 16 , at 13 she should still be playing child's games with a child's mind . Why does she want to have sex at that age when most of the population are just having a kiss and a fumble . I blame the way things are portrayed on tv and how she was brought up . She must be seeing something close to home to make her think this is normal.but this is just my opinion. Atb basil
  18. Here is my white legged cock he was gifted to me by a friend a week or so ago.i am not to sure of his entire breeding, it have my suspicions lol.
  19. I love to see Bantys running round, they always seem to rule the roost lol, nice birds cm atb basil
  20. Thanks for the comments every one atb basil
  21. I have just been gifted a white legged English cock but I am dubious about his origin I will try and get a pic of him up tomorrow , but I don't think he has the same class as yours ,c.m. , ab basil
