Research Presentation -very important

Appearance
The body is long, broad and deep with carriage about 20 degrees above the horizontal– too
upright a stance is regarded as a fault.

The bill is yellow with a dark bean at the tip.  It should be straight and set fairly high on the
head.  Eyes are brown.  Legs are strong and orange/red in colour.

The buff has a reddish undertone, but ideally the colour is even all over without grey, white or
pencilled feathers, and with no white neck ring.  The drake has a glossy brown head and upper
neck – this colour should finish in a sharp line all around the neck.  There should be no trace of
green, and a minimum of blue on the rump.

As with other buff-coloured poultry, plumage can fade in sunlight.
