I like the Australian yellow. It has great marking (fowling) on the back. Well done.

Thanks I'm really pleased with them especially the YH cock in the first two pictures, he's a really good size and split blue too.

Thanks, he's the first and only AY I have ever bred, I bought the parents in January at a sale, the hen had some fowling but the cock was split AY so I was not sure what I was going to get, they bred a couple of splits aswell so now I'm on the hunt for some more AY or AY splits to breed them with.

I have some born last November that have not coloured up at all and yet others born in May that are fully coloured, for some reason my second round birds have coloured up much faster than the first round :wtf:
