Păsări fabulos Corbu! Especially like the second cockerel, neat head and excellent beard, very smart!These look like pullet breeding cockerels. How much do they weigh out of interest?

Girls are very good too, slightly uneven colouring on the wing, but a very minor fault, possibly due to time of year lightening the salmon feathering 08 08

The second cockerel was hatch in June 2011 and at the poultry show (were the photo is made, in January 2012) it was awarded only with 92 points because was not fully grown. I sell this bird to another breeder and this season has obtain good chicks with his hens (both cockerels and pullets).
In Roumania, we don't have breeding flocks to produce good cockerels and others specialized in producing pullets. With the same breeding flock we obtain good quality cockerels and pullets (of course, if the parents are show quality birds).
My adult roosters, mostly, have between 3.5 - 4 kg.
The roumanian Faverolles standard say:
- rooster 3-4 kg;
- hen 2.5 - 3.25 kg.

Girls, yes, very good remark. I have this problem with my blood line (slightly colouring on the wing of hens) but I work to correct this fault.
