Hey Donald. Turns out someone local (Jan) has some of the coops, so she'll measure them, or I'll go over there, or something. It's hardly urgent at this...
Hi Everyone, I just have a quick question on tail length on rosecombs. I've noticed that the tail length on my pullets is nice and long, but when they go into...

Wow! She is beautiful Steve! I'm especially impressed with her tail. Do I dare ask how many you raise in a year to get a beauty like her? Shannon ... ...
Hi Shannon: I raise around 200 Blacks a year. This year had a very good year for show birds as most are very consistence in type and have been working on...
Hello all, My name is Jason, and I'm from Indiana. I am just getting back into the show circuit and would be interested in a pair or so of good rosecombs. I...
Hi Jason, Welcome to the message board. I'm sure you can hook up with someone at the Connersville show, but I also have some info for you if not. First,...
Prophetic words Curtis!! I am just back from the Denver show. I snuck up there to suprise Steve and to try to beat him in Rosecombs....no such luck!! Steve had...
