Title: Pair Large Fowl Brown Reds
Post by: Mike Gilbert on November 29, 2010, 08:51:09 PM: I have one extra large fowl Brown Red cockerel and pullet available, but would prefer not to ship. I like to save an extra cockerel back until I know my breeder(s) are fertile, and they are based on candling results last week. This pair would make someone a decent start in this variety. Contact me at: info@redstagacres.com for details.

But nice dispositions and type. :rolleyes:

Post by: Mike Gilbert on November 30, 2010, 10:57:52 AM: Okay. I\'ll wait a bit and let you know if no one else wants them within driving distance. There is one other person ahead of you if I have to ship, but she has not confirmed yet.

At least they will be within driving distance.

I\'m thinking the obvious baby cockerels have longer necks. Do y\'all think the ones that we think might be pullets end up as cockerels with better type - at least in the equal head and tail height?

Never noticed it or thought about it Lyne. I do like fast maturing cockerels, and they are generally the ones you can count on to be fertile and vigorous. I tend to cull out the ones that mature slowly.

Post by: bryngyld on December 01, 2010, 01:25:53 PM: I don\'t really think this little fellow is slow maturing. I was guessing a pullet because the neck was not long. I should take a photo. He has cockerel feathers coming in and is still shaped like a pullet (doesn\'t have a long neck).
