I got a few shots of one of my not for breeding roos, he is with my laying hens.  I think he is gorgeous, but can\'t take a chance on his legs.  His muff and beard aren\'t that great either.

Anyone else want to share any pics?

Jean,
Your buff rooster doesn\'t look that bad.  What do you think is wrong with his legs?    If you could only see what we were working with a few years ago you would feel really good about this bird.   Muffs are one of the easiest traits to correct.

Mike,

My rooster isn\'t that bad, that\'s why he is still here, but I have two nicer ones than him.  They both have better legs and muffs.  He\'s here as a back up only at this point, in case the other two drop dead struck by lighting.

I am amazed at the darkness difference between the LF Silver compared to the bantam silver.   Johnny

I\'ve got three bantam silver pullets that produce even lighter colored chicks.
Below are boxes of LF chicks that went out in the mail this afternoon.  The first contains brown reds, buffs and silvers & the second has silvers, wheatens and blues.

Here\'s a close up shot of a cockerel I got from John\'s stock.  Check out those muffs!

I wanted to post more pictures of my favs from this year\'s hatch and John even tried cropping them for me, but when I saved them they ended up too large to attach.  I will keep trying.

Nice pics, Jean.   Good color on the buff and the silvers.
John must be doing something right!    And it appears you are doing a great job of raising them as well.   The male silver will look much better in a month or two when he matures.
