OLDYELLOW

i have one photo of this cock but it is very bad quality done on a normal camera , ill dig out my photos and scan them later

i think your more likely to get strawberry mealys first

I am a lover of the red colouring but i like the darker shades of red so i cross the reds with blacks / dark checkers but not velvets as the later breeds reds and barless mealys

one son 2 hens grandaughters and great grands 2 cocks in race team are grandsons of old yelllow

my old yellow cock won 2nd Bourge as a yearling 1st Bourge 512 miles as a 2 year old and was 2 x 6th clermont 360 miles beaten by loft mates 2 x 6th Jouey le Chatel 420 miles

im glad hes back safe and well

had firework going off last few days all times of day idiots wont see the pretty colours during daytime ;D ;D ;D ;D

could be stress from fireworks , just a thought but getting tested is the best way

got my mate ginos number from Gail Dave so send her a email

oh thats funny his dam was blue chequer not a yellow hen the cock was yellow oh dear oh dear

ok it you want to be technical a dilute ash gene

never seen dark been described as a true colour the nearest you get is black

and the cock is a son out of a yellow so the yellow gene is recessive in there ofspring , and could easily be paired to produce yellows , and more chance if both birds carrying the yellow gene

Happy birthday Chrissy, hope you have a good one

and this came out of 2 reds the cock been out of a yellow if i paired the cock up to a blue checker i would of bred yellow fact i breed these birds and have since 1992

a silver from a yellow can carry the yellow as a recessive gene

bath salts dry up the oils in the feathers nothing more , want dry feathers ?

depends on how wide your having your loft

well loft designs are based on how you wish to fly your birds how wide are you going to have loft ? what system are you going to fly ? do you wish to have a corridor do you want internal doors with one external door many questions but these will determin how you design it

water preferably with a kettle of hotboiling water to take the nip off it at the end and a couple of crush cloves of garlic and if you realy want to put anything else in it add a couple of drops of albas oil in help keep there airways clear
