Are there any Pekin people reading this that can confirm this roosters colouring and what colour to mate him with? Ivy : Here is a photo of my cockerel that I bred this spring. It was from a white splash cockerel and a buff hen. I have been looking at photos of Pekins on the net and I think he is a Partridge Pekin. He is a very handsome bird and I would like to mate him to some of my hens, but I would like to know if he is a partridge colour or not before I go and mess things up. I wondered if you knew any Pekin breeders that could tell me, and if it is, what colour to mate him with. I wrote to you before about the colours I was getting and you very kindly sent me something you found on the net which was very useful. Perhaps you could put his photo in the newsletter, there might be other Pekin people who know more about them than I do. Thanks for all the hard work you do to keep the newsletter coming to us, I for one really look forward to it. I have looked again at the photo and as they free range in the garden I am afraid the beautiful feathering on his feet is very wet! Regards, Ivy. |
