nice bird tho matey.

He looks like our old Red Pd cock Rodey who died last year, kids loved him and he left his mark cos one of his younguns topped the fed............and i'm not kidding you when i say it was a young chequer hen

Was he old then mark?

This ones a 3yo now. hes a right bully

he was an 03 bird, but started to lose his body

not that old that but these things happen

my oldest birds are 05 rings..............

My oldest is 03 david, still life in the old bird yet I hope

Will say in 1996 brought a 1980 blue pied cock "Van Den Bosch" Albert Babbington put the cock in a section on his own with a few old hens for company but bred from him in the summer months and the youngsters were spot on
