I also noticed that on one of my SPLASH cockerels, it has TWO SPURS on the same leg. How serious of a fault is this? Can I use the bird for breeding if that is his only noticeable fault or am I just making trouble for myself?
So, is there a gene for this and both parents have to have the gene for it to show up or is it just a random thing?
I have another splash cock, but he has that KING attitude...the double spur boy was in the cage with the pullets....
Double Spur cock has brownish wash on his wings.....guess he gets the layer hens to protect and won't be used for breeding....decision made.
Thanks!
