gnasher16 31,602 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) I thought it would be as easy as looking at a dog breed for someone who knew what they was looking at......................think i,ll just tell him Bob & Mavis after all save arguments ! Basically the ol boy had died and the son had been coming over looking after the animals so to speed things up my mate said he would take them on they are in decent pens etc.......would just be nice to know what they are thats all.

Think ,you will just have to tell him,they are crossbreeds of Asian gamefowl.The pens look really neat,though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
