Brown Red

BROWN RED


Brown Red


Brown Red has speed and more speed, with cutting to boot – the advantage of this dark fowl. Coming dark-legged, dark-eyed and with characteristic black feathering, this family is a sight to behold, since Brown Reds show more of the razzle-dazzle shuffling action type of fighting, although their drawback is their seeming lack of gameness and stamina.
However, because of other infusions made by breeders, there already are Brown Reds that are game enough, lasting for more than 10 minutes. In the drag fight, these fighters are defensive and very calculating, uncharacteristic of a typical Brown Red.









SWEATER

SWEATER



Today, one is not considered “in” if he is not breeding the Sweater fowl. Yellow legged, peacombed, high stationed, sleek body conformation and with their characteristic pumpkin-orange hackle feathers and swarming offensive fighting style – Sweaters were popularized in the Philippines by Carol NeSmith who won the World Slashers International Derby back to back. As with many families, the origin of Sweater is mired by so many versions, some even contradictory. However, it is commonly accepted that this blood, as originated by Sweater McGinnis, is heavy on the Kelso blood. Today, the more well known Sweaters are those which come from Carol NeSmith, Dink Fair, Joe Sanford, Nene Abello, Sonny Lagon, Atty. Jun Mendoza, Raffy Campos and Edwin Aranez, Bebot and Chionkee Uy, among many others.

ROUNDHEAD


ROUNDHEAD








Peacombed, tall and white or yellow legged, Roundheads are considered as ring generals. They are characteristically flyers and agile all-around athletes with superb cutting ability. The most famous among the many Roundheads is the Lacy Roundhead, originated by Judge Lacy. There are other Roundhead families like the Bruners, Sheltons, Dan Gray, Allen and Boston. It is widely believed that this family originated from the oriental fowl. They cross well with Clarets, Butchers, Greys, Lemon, Kelsos and of course, Hatches.

 Grey

 

Regular Grey is said to be a combination of three grey families: the Law Grey, the Sweater Grey and the Plain head Muff Grey.
Regular Greys come green legged, sometimes with yellow, silver duck wings and straight comb. They are medium to low-stationed and are known for power and gameness.
Breeders note that they are as powerful and dead game as the Bluefaces. Because of these, many breeders have made Regular Grey as their foundation line.


style than the Pure Regular Greys, complete with speed, power, and gameness. We have bred and developed them as a set strain, and fought them this way for many years with success.

Blueband kelso


 The story of Bebot Uy's Blueband bloodline started when a certain Mexican national brought a trio to his friend here in California with his instructions to send the trio to Mexico upon getting a go signal from him. But before the trio could be sent that Mexican national died.

His friend has no idea about the origin of the trio. They have blue legband though so he called them as such. He also succesfully bred them and produced about 25 cocks who all won their first fights. GT tipped off Bebot Uy about this extra ordinary story with a warning that none is for sale. I didn't ask for details on how he got it but he was really happy with that acquisition. The rest is history now.
Melsim Hatch



The fighting style or traits of melsims black as I observed is that, they are typical brownred looking, straight comb, medium station, heavy feathered, dark legged, lemon hackles to mulberry faced dark brownreds. They have a deep breast bone and small heads. The fighting style is that they want to make contact immediately. They go straight in like a bullet and when they close the distance they will unload a barrage of blows non stop till they can't no more. They are very hard hitters, almost hatch who are a multiple shuffler, but with a lot of speed and extreme aggression. When well conditioned and on his exact weight, they are a very good shuffler, but it is not good to overweight them. The melsims black can take the gaff when they are hit and they are not easily down and when hit by the opponent they are capable to throw a counter punches.
