Black-Breasted Red

A variant of Old English Game (Gallus gallus domesticus)

Black-Breasted Red

The archetypal OEG color: brilliant orange-red hackle and saddle, black breast and tail on the cock, partridge hen. The hard-feathered, muscular game build is the breed's hallmark.

Keeper tips for this variant
