Hey Milo,
Both birds are really nice infact thier so nice I had to go out in my loft and see if you stole them from me LOL! They look like KGB'S line of birds I especially like the open check I'm assuming that its a hen. If I can figure out how you post pictures on here from Photo bucket I will send a picture of my Billings line of birds to compare with what you have posted. The T check and it might be the picture has a flat spot on the top of its head not that thats a problem but its appears in the picture and it maybe just a shadow I'm seeing. Thanks for posting. By the way the taper vanishes from the chest into nothing very nice.

Thanks Ivan. Good to see ya here. I posted the open check hen because she is a little different than her full sister. - I posted her pic here before, and I have stocked her. This open pattern hen is built a bit stronger than her sister: I have posted here below. Wondering if she will stiffen up as I fly her into her second year? I know what you mean about the flat top on the cock...it's it a bad pic, so I took another and added it below as well. As for the necks Curtis....Don't know what to tell ya....LOL I have a lot of the S-neck type birds. I like that in my birds as I feel that is where they get a lot of their power. The peripheral muscles of the neck and back are in my opinion, the engine of the bird, or at least the timing belt...LOL You may want to share some pics of these shorter necked birds so we can make an assessment.
C ya.

Hi Kelly.
Ya, they can do it for sure. That last pic is a funny one...he can roll, but he looks a lot different now that he is stocked and all fattened up. He was a rolling fool in my A team...take a look at him now...

Looks like you holding the goods Milo. I like the bird in the 2nd photo. Looks a lot like my birds that come off Tort/Check matings.

Milo,
I LOVE the very first pic. Love the short cobby body and legs. Looks almost like a mini-me bird LOL! Nice looking blue. Good job!
