History and exhibition
Oklahoma State University traces the breed to older British gamefowl and describes its later use in ornamental poultry shows. A breed profile concerns inherited appearance and documented history; it is not a guide to fighting ability.
Identifying features
The university describes an upright stance, a small body, and tight feathering. Its listed colour varieties include Black Breasted Red, Brown Red, Golden Duckwing, Silver Duckwing, Red Pyle, White, Black, and Spangled.
Reading a breed description
A colour variety belongs within a breed. The same plumage name can appear in other breeds, so colour alone is insufficient identification. Consult the referenced profile and the relevant exhibition standard rather than inferring ancestry from a photograph.
