So Due to increasing work and lack of spare time, Im selling out my Fallows at the coming Brasea Auction I will post Pictures soon . That must be tough Matt after investing time and effort into a recessive variety (not to mention quality birds that could have been used elsewhere) Good luck with the results you get at the Auction. Cheers, James
August 21, 201113 yr Hi Matt Will you be freighting any of the birds for sale? Look forward to pictures!
August 21, 201113 yr I look forward to going to the auction to see what you are selling Matt. How do your fallows rate when compared to other varieties you have?

Cheers, James Yep any recessive variety is Tough. Hi Matt Will you be freighting any of the birds for sale? Look forward to pictures! Squeak the birds are with Brasea Auction and they do the shipping at the buyers expense. ( Less work for me) I look forward to going to the auction to see what you are selling Matt. How do your fallows rate when compared to other varieties you have? Dave I recently took out Best Fallow at the Hunter show Annual 2011, With a 2011 Fallow Blue Hen .
August 22, 201113 yr Cool. I look forward to seeing them. Fallows are not my thing but if you are into fallows, and Matt's birds are like others of his I have seen, you will not want to miss these.
