Old English 1902 England

Ahhhh...the Grand Ol Man!!!!!

Nice Spur positoning

Reminds me a bit of the Kelso strain. A fine looking Old English cock.

Look how close heeled he is. Reminds me of Weirs duns - that rangy gaunt look!

I'd be proud to have him in my yard

So where's the thread gone this time? Mods, I, like others, have had gut full of this. People are providing the information, very good info at that, and you guys are shooting the messengers. Where is it going to end ...

If you put the link to a thread in the photo details, as requested, we may be able to answer you.

C'mon guys, someone can surely find find fault with this great bird, maybe the Carlisle clan or others who seem to think so poorly of such a fine spicemen, where are you. Great looking rooster. I'm sure that without the 1902 date attached then their would be all sorts of detractors.

Before the Picture was able to be blown up, and then the thread dissappeared, I did make comment that this bloke looked a bit leggy and coarse/heavy(of coarse I was wrong, once seeing the big picture) But what I was trying to suggest, was as Mannagum said, "Rangy Gaunt" lookng, only compared to you Blokes fowls of today....

I believe this thread to be the one referred to: http://forum.backyardpoultry.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=8006837.


I will edit into the photo details.


For future reference, this is done as outlined in this thread in Technical Helpline: http://forum.backyardpoultry.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=7958700
