There is nothing to say except that at 2+ or so months they are the most perfect chickens I have ever seen. The station and conformation are perfect, the legs are straight and long, the head is held high; the pride in their walk says what I have wanted to hear since I started my farm 5 years ago.
I can't wait to cross the offspring hens to my Hamlin Asil. The hens themselves will never see another cock as long as my Carol N cock can do the deed.
