    Hey Buffy, what are these?

    This one belongs to the neighbor, I think.



    I think this one is wild. Any Ideas?




    I can't seem to get full size pics from photobucket.



    Maybe SES knows since this is his old stomping ground.

    If the first one is a chicken, a Rhode Island Red maybe? The other two...no clue. Now I is curious too.

    I used to be OK at the photobucket thing.

    Why can't I get these bigger?

    Maybe they'll look better here:

    The first one could be a Japanese bantam. Is he really small ? Judging by the way his tail feathers arch over his back in the other pic in your photobucket account, that's what he seems to be, along with a female.

    It could also just be a common Old English Game, bantam or regular sized. It's hard to tell. About the other thing, I'm thinking Chukar? Maybe.. Do a google search for Chukars and see if they look similar.

    After another look, I don't think they Chucks.. I have no idea what they are. The primary wing feathers have similar barring, but that's where the similarities end it seems.

    Yeah, they definitely stay in 2 separate groups and the black & white one flys like a pheasant. Runs like one also.

    Hmmmmm, I do have a good recipe for pheasant. I may have to try your experiment. For scientific purposes of course.
    That's all I got.

    That second bird could be an Elliot's Pheasant or a Vietnamese Pheasant.

    Adobo. Never seen those around. Are they walking around wild?
