  1. UK, thanks for sharing your knowledge. It amazes me all the different names of fowl lines, would never of thought that was the reason they are called blue face, as bull said i lirterally thought blue face. It is important to know the history, with all things, not just fowl. It can help with the managment and upkeep if you have a better understanding of any animal, people included. I often ask folk with dogs if they know the history of the breed, a lot of the time they dont. Knowing the history aids with all kinds of behavior problems. I would recomend anyone to research whatever animal they ar
