Re: Sumatra
he was only a few months old on that pic. His tail and saddle feathers are now quite alot longer (trail on the floor) and he has 3 spurs on each leg. His comb and wattles have not changed and show absolutely no red. I am delighted with this guy and can't wait to see how his youngsters grow.

Re: Sumatra
I thought i would post a pic of my white sumatras, only have a cock and two chicks left as unfortunately something attacked my hen and killed her, luckily one of the chicks is female so should be able to breed in 2014
