[attachment=2]2011-09-10 16.09.02 (Small).jpg[/attachment]I have a beautiful Milefleur pekin hen, and i have come across this wee rooster.. IM not sure if hes a cross or not (perhaps someone could verify for me), but i want to breed from My milefleur hen, what do you think? should i get a different rooster? He is young, so not sure if his colour should be different or will it develop. hes about 5 or 6 months now.

Im only starting with breeding, but i want to ensure i dont breed rubbish.. so all help would be appreciated.

Thanks a mill

    I dont think they would be a good match as he doesnt look like a pekin :o You should get a differant pure breed pekin rooster the same colour and breed the two. There are sales coming up soon so you can get a pure breed there ,just make sure its a pure breed and ask to have a look at it first. Check to see if it has four toes and if it has lice. Lice isnt a big problem but it is for chicks. Remember that you dont have to buy the first pekin you see. :D
