last years babies grown

Hi everyone. I'm back! With some new photos which I hope I can get up. If you remember that far back I am trying to breed Crowned and Crested's. But they don't seem to want to settle into uniformity. The blue and black ones with the vulture hocks or clean legs don't seem to like wearing crowns, and have a tendency to want to grow much bigger. They are also fine layers that lay as well in winter as summer. The pretty little C@C bantam that I'm looking for don't seem to like wearing vulture hocks, just furry legs, and tend to be exchequer or pale yellow beige. Anyway hear are pictures of you keep your fingers crossed.

Good looking birds animartco, I like the colour mix on the second bird in particular. Am I right in remembering that originally you bred these out of pekins x sicillian buttercup?, I would imagine it will still take a little while yet before they settle down into something predictable just keep plugging away and you'll get there, best of luck to you .

Thank you Dinosaw. the trouble is there is so much variation and a lot of it seems so promising that i don't know which to run with. so i'm trying to put like to like. i will try to upload a few more photos. wish me luck.
