aye ready Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 if the members had a choice to have a youngster for stock out of a national winner which would they choose the cock or the hen purely for breeding with no bull system
the dude Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 the youngster i liked best of the two :)
kirky Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 i would chose the hen every time, but i dont think it matters realy.
showman Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Nice question !! In earlier years an old fancier friend told me to keep an eye on my hens,as he believed that was where a lofts' strength was.....so that's where my choice would lie.

showman Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 When I had the show racers here, I was very, very proud of my hens, and practically guarded them with my lfe !!
Simeon Turner Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 If a cock had won the National I would take then hen. If a hen had won the National I would take the cock. Always found that the best cocks bred us good hens and vice versa
OLDYELLOW Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 all would depend on what i intended to do with it , if wanting to bull your hens with one cock id buy the cock , but id want to know if the parents were in a single flight so parentage could be guarenteed firstly , as they say mothers baby daddys maybe
Guest j.bamling Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 i would first think what i wanted to pair to it before i made my choice
black badge Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 If they are the right price av em both.
taffacre Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 Iwould pick the hen every time,same reason,old fancier always said pick the hen.!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
