Chicken_man 1,651 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Mo, My old Irish brood Cock, whom i recently gifted to a good friend. This bird has a mullberry coloured face, the hens in the thread are Gypsy face, you can also have red. Completley different bird. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
