What a fantastic action shot. There is just something so fasinating about these birds. I normally go straight for large soft feather but the more I see of Malay the more I like.
Red dunn pyle some others would say differently or disagree.. Because they lay so few usually I don’t let mine hatch their own they seem to squash eggs especially during hatching while eggs shells go brittle, some even peck their chicks while they born and wet but few are good at hatching chicks.. Once their chicks are out and about they among the best of mums.
when they are on eggs they are also very agressive.

no more aggressive than a normal hen, some are some are not. they can peck harder than a normal spft feather because they have stronger beaks. the malay hen i had was very gentle.
