I loved the glosters when I had em, funny wee things with bags a character, if I ever get back into them I’d go back to boro again for more stock A good friend of mine locally bred some and I picked up a couple from a local auction. they are steady little things and not so active in the breeders as the reds and mosaics but the kids love em with the top hats on em lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bangersanmash 2,361 Posted April 12, 2022 Report Share Posted April 12, 2022 I've just bred this variegated cinnamon bird an it's sex linked so will be a hen. The mothers not a cinnamon I bred her last season an the father to the young bird was one a bred in 2016 an he's still going strong. To look at him you'd think he was a young bird. When he starts to sing with my other timbrado cocks they just go stump. He can fire a note out very loud , my ears start to make a noise like a crisp packet been crunched with jonny cash firing a tune out lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
