Micheal, Thanks for that, really like pic's, both of mine are going to be hens, good to see actual BBCFW hen pic's nice one. Your male is a lot darker marked than mine as you can see, mine was the first i'd ever seen now yours the second.Do you breed many of these ? So are you far enough to put BBCFW to BBCFW if so well done thats one of my aims.Thanks for posting to me,Trevor :)

Michael, yours are red eye and Trevor's are black eye, that can explain the difference in colors

Yes Paul and Sam, you're right, mine are red eyed CFW (Continental) and Trevor's are black eyed CFW ( UK) and as Sam is telling us that's why mine is darker in color. In my breed i'm mixing both type : the continental ones to improve the color ( cream back, black tail markings and intense orange cheek and flancs marks) and the black eyes for the type (size and model). I'm pairing CFW x CFW : cock red eye x hen red eye, cock black eye/red eye x hen red eye and cock red eye x hen black eye.I'm doing the same pairings in my CFW fawn (BB): You'll find a pic of a CFW BB fawn black eye/red eye cock attached here ...The CFW-BB is a very nice combination of mutations, i hope you will have an excellent breeding season with yours Trevor ! :)Michael
