  1. I would imagine by retaining and using the stronger marked birds would give you the best chance of breeding some strongly coloured birds bushy

  4. Good to see you on here Cliff welcome to the forum Dave
  5. As Paul says you would need some bigger birds first you would be very highly unlikely to breed large birds from two small birds pair your best birds together best cock to best hen 2nd best to 2nd best ect... then by selecting only the best birds and releasing others in your stud after a couple of years you should start to see a uniformity in your birds by pairing your best birds to lesser birds you will dilute the quality i would add by choosing penguins you have chosen a colour that tends to be smaller than others so judge them against other penguins although they have improved a bit over last few years dave

  21. Hi Gareth i agree with Trevor.chanel your energy into getting your accomodation ready and maybe visit some breeders near you to get an idea of what you should aim for join the zfs or a local bird club there is a welsh zfs you could join and maybe could point you to some local breeders this will save you heartache in future i cannot stress to you how important good bright airy accommodation is all the best dave
