I admit I am quite thrilled by his sisters.
Kept 5 Columbian and 5 Black, and the Black and definitely superior to their mothers, and on top of it the most relaxed bunch we have had in a very long time.
Sorry the pictures are not very good but @windwalkingwolf please note the Black pullet on right....

Thank you, before I let it go to my head, only about 3 out of 10 are that good ;)

:-o :shock: :yippie: :wee: :congrats2:
Wow! The Columbians are no slouches type-wise, either! So, can I assume you will be breeding their parents together again? And that you're also going to test-breed Jewel? :xfingers: And that when you're finished with him, I will buy him from you? :fingersx:

You might be tiny bit evil :twisted:
I will not be doing the same breeding again, I was happy with the results, but it's too easy to forget that the 3 good pullets aren't out of 10, but out of 28 :-)
If I don't keep him he is yours end of summer.
I am still hoping for good Columbian Cockerel ( rally you think I would give up now, so will breed his Sire back to his daughters.

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: The devil makes me do it :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: I think you should get @Killerbunny to smuggle that black pullet into OPB when she goes :twisted: roflmbo

In all seriousness though, one in ten is pretty good.
