Glassfeather Posted March 17, 2006 Author Report Posted March 17, 2006 Thanks Jimmy, That is a brown bar Jiennense hen. The Jiennense was developed in the town of Jaen, Linares, in Andalucia. They are very strong fliers, derived from a homer cross and descended from an ancient pouter breed sometimes known as the 'cola vuelta' which translates something like curved tail, because they fly with their tail curved upwards as in the photo below. The 'Colillano' or flat tail and the 'Colitejo' or 'tile-tail' carry their tails in a different manner, as the names suggest.
