I'm probably sitting at about 100 breeders I guess.  Then when the fall rolls around I have a couple hundred.  My junglefowl cock that I had just got a pardon from his death sentence and trip to my freezer for taxidermy for a life of decadence in california.  He will be locked in a pen for the sole purpose of breeding 3 little ladies all day.  Who says confinement is bad.

Love the variety of colors on that bird!!! Are you able to breed them or do you raise them from chicks?
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.
