BULLDOUG 199 Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 As the title says, ive purchased a quantlet today, just thought they were awsome looking birds, i dont think there renound for there gameness but a fine looking bird all the same. They were 13 weeks old and already a tidy size bird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tuzo 251 Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Your right, not really a 'game' bird but they are the biggest of the malayoids. Their profile should show 3 curves-the neck, a roach back and the tail. They should have hexagonal scales on their legs. They should have a large overhanging eyebrow to give an immpression of ferocity. Another requirement is a half walnut comb. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BULLDOUG 199 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Thans lads, to be fair two of the hens are very nice but the cock as nice as he is has dodgy feet, im a twat for buying them really but theyll get a good life all the same. I did manage to get a couple of contacts at the auction so ill be following them up in hope of finding a nice Asil or shamo Cockeral... ATB D Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BULLDOUG 199 Posted March 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I believe there are some outstanding Malays in South Africa. I GET A LOT OF MIXED FEELING ABOUT THEM TO BE HONEST MATE, I THINK THERE A BIT LIKE MARMITE. These four of mine are nice enough, quite timid still, dont think they had much bonding with man, but i will persist. ATB D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
