  12. As you have just said hatch,28, that is a colour sex link and that is not the question UK asked, he said which is best the hen or the cock and I said both, which anybody that under stands breeding knows, you breed good fowl from a good producing BROOD,,,, PAIR,,,, mate, but if you are not like me that only keeps good fowl, well then I suppose you have got to breed from what you have got and hope your golden hen produces something half decent but in todays show pens decent show birds don't pay the corn bill good ones dose a t b O,T,T
  13. Well UK as they say you will not bread a grand national winner from a good mare and a donkey that is why top stallions are bred to top mares chickens dogs pigeons horses what ever its a combination of both parents 50,50 so if you put good to good you will get good, That's how I keep at the top and others are always a good second ha ,ha ,har a, t ,b ,, O,T,T
