Yes mate , artificial light can be used as long as your other fowl arent in the same building and the correct vitamins and supplements are used Duckwing

I bow to the superior knowledge and expertise of your many many yrs in the game ukroosterman Duckwing

As the nights darken they spend too much time on the perch instead of eating and exercising .... during the growing periods ..... majority of late bred broods will be noticeably smaller in weight than there February and March hatched full brothers at similar ages some families can come short legged as well when late bred .

Gingers are very typey ...... I would be surprised if they are all pullets but its not unheard of .... fingers crossed you may have a nice stag worth breeding from within the 16 .... its far too late to set now the youngsters never do as well out of late hatches duckwing

Nice gingers donny .... good length of back and better feather than a lot of gingers these days however its a shame this site is still loaded with ... to be frank ...cranks ! Its illegal to dub after 72 hrs old .... Remember that and remember these sites are watched constantly by the animal rights nutters ... Duckwing

Agreed mark ..... great lads very helpful and ready to help genuine lads

Glad you lads are still getting a kick out of the thread its a great family hobby and something that doesn't need a lot of garden space to be competitive , lads can keep them living in town .... and no elaborate set ups needed well iam off ..... got the stock to sort all the best duckwing

Good little mix uk ..... very similar to what the majority use here , tho I add a few bits more and dont use chick crumbs I soak a pellet . Duckwing

tweed crap , How am I crabbing a bird when ive said they look good .... ??? They are good average fowl ... no ones put anything outstanding on here imo . ... and thetes been more culls than barnburners . Both you and your son willie thorn seem and along yer friends o.t.t. the theif and ukiwannabeinthepapers ... seem to think that you have something outstanding in your pens .... maybe amongst the travellers you have !.... but theres a hundred or more men I can think of have equal and better ! The sears whitehackles and muffs were imported before you went over .... and we have ru

Since you asked uk .... They are good looking fowl from the looks .... you photograph the same fowl ? .... have you only a handful ? Two things .... jump board is too close to the roof ... you will snap wing flights on the roof . Secondly .... thats a very stupid move you made with putting these particular photos up ..... One way or the other kid you want to make yourself famous .... Duckwing

What lines do they originate from ?
-
I bring up the subject .... because its the biggest problem with the gamefowl scene over the last two decades with many good men and families lost to constant thefts oft wiping out a decades work in one hit ..... that alone puts it at the forefront of every ones mind . charlie dickson gingers ..... he was a friend of some old friends of mine gifting them many fowl .... he received his gingers from Henry parsons who imported them from r.a. mcintyre in the states .... where the family was known as the felix flatheads due to them throwing the odd pea combed fowl ...... I saw many of

What line are these db?

Willie .... can I ask you ... have you not found the wide perches turns some fowl duck toed thru sitting on a flat surface ? Duckwing
-
Charlie .... dont think iam being argumentative .... I will give you my views on the fowl and I hope you take them as they are meant .... constructive ! Lets go thru them ..... Look at their stance .... the backs too short exaggerated which throws their breast forward . And neck back look at the wing clip of them which isnt tight to the body caused by the width of back ..... being overly wide between the wings and too tight going towards the tail .... in short the classic bullocks heart shape looked for by the Carlisle club .... Now I know they are not Carlisle per se bu

Fellas I actually mentioned the fact that they have been stolen as to say the best two lines thought of as english are now gone ..... and its a dam shame how they went .... after all there was two lifetimes of work gone ...terrible terrible shame . as for being racist ? ....... well it seems calling a man rascist is now the first refuge of the ethnic minorities ... once they have lost the argument . And no not every traveller is a theif ... but most thefts of gamefowl are by travellers ....... and I would have more respect for travellers if they were open and honest about it .
-
Fella ...... it wasnt a dig none of my comments are .... they are the truth just because you dont like them doesnt make them lies ....we have had enough of thebullshit on here haven't we of late ! Certain members shouting down anyone that doesn't agree or indeed has a different view . Only reason I got involved was the fact I saw young lads getting sucked into a situation . Which would in all probability have them either without fowl or because of association unable to go anywhere with out a black mark under there names . Let fools think what they want ..... iam a million
-
Basil ..... not all of the so called English fowl have Carlisle blood in them ... but a lot do ... its a sad state of affairs that a man would breed something like that into his fowl to win a rosette ! Perhaps the best two familys of "English " fowl in the last thirty five yrs in britain owned by a friend of mine ... I often saw the breeding records .... which showed English , spanish and so called American breeds of english fowl and irish ..... yet the men who wouldn't keep a yank ...were begging for a bird , ..... Iys a shame they are now gone ..... after yrs of constant thefts
-
Basil ...... theres no family of so called English or oxford game that hasnt had both American blood and to a greater extent a dose of asil and latter in show mens lines Carlisle blood .... hence the body shape and short feathering of them .... which has been since atkinsons time and influence concentrated on by the show men ruining many lines .... The stark facts are the milner type you seem to favour is a modern showmans representation of the breed changing from around 1910 onwards . ....

Yrs ago men would give a fortune for roll downs ..... if the men arent competitive or have been you are risking wasting time and feed on poor quality . ive stopped competing as I wasn't hapoy with some of the men who showed up unannounced to watch a kit from all parts of the country ... and unknown to me . However I still breed from birds I would place in a competitive kit .... and breed from my best in any breeding situation its important that the breeder has a goal and sticks to it ! Ive seen parlour rollers many times a friend kept them .... they fly very little and re

Well I wont be throwing my 25 ltrs of bartoline creosote anywhere but on the wood ........

To be honest fella thats bullshit about the chinese game .... it was spread about by one man who was a known liar and con man ....herman pinnon ive talked many times to his chicken man that worked for pinnon for yrs ...... he told me it was nothing more than a sales gimik and gave me the breeding of the yellow legged pinnons I also know men that went to pinnons and picked up fowl from him ..... theres a long story to it ..... and the making of the modern day sweaters are involved remember fellas .... just because its written on the internet or in a magazine it dont make it the tru

You at best are a deluded half wit ..... and a prime example of all thats wrong in the travelling gamefowl community . Duckwing
-
Yeah put them up fellas save me writing a bit ...Iam sure the rspca reading this on here already have your names up on record booty .... and cousin .... maybe the lads on here could do with a bit of a record with your thefts on ... from clamdiggers down over ...or maybe up over . you half wits have had hassle before and are just setting yourselves up for more ..... wouldn't be surprised if you get a knock on the caravan door through what you have written ... yet as usual will look for someone else to blame .....try the mirror brain dead
-
Too true butler ........ think it might be time to tell the half wits on here the true pedigrees and identities of the arseholes on here .... They keep giving out a name of a man that has nothing to do with me or the arguments on here ..... so lets see how the theives pretending to be gamefowl men would like it when the tables are reversed ?
