![]() Sometimes it can’t be avoided and a rooster will quit fighting. For some cockfighters it was okay with them if their roosters ran as long as they won.įor myself personally, I want my roosters to win and not run. It is required that there is a foundation of toughness and gameness in breeding. We do not call the sport “cock running” and most of all we do not call our roosters “running cocks”. We call our chickens “games” or “ fighting games”. Gamefowl are most often used for the sport of cockfighting. Why you must include Whitehackle in your breeding program The Murphy is also one of the most popular and fierce bloodlines of the old time cockfighters. The Murphy gamefowl for example is a combination of different types of Whitehackle fowl. If you are raising Gulls you are basically breeding Whitehackle fowl. Remember, Gulls are highly infused with Whitehackle blood along with a small amount of Hatch. Using examples such as the Morgan Whitehacle, Lemon and Kearny along with modern day versions like Gulls. That’s just how game these Whitehacke’s are. Why? Because by this age they were already beating one another up in a free-ranged area. From my personal experience within 3 or 4 months of age we would have to put them up right away. ![]() I had the opportunity to breed some of these fowl. If you are looking for toughness, Whitehackle are the toughest breed of all gamefowl. CharacteristicsĪ lot of my American friends would tell me that in terms of gameness, there is no match for the Whitehackle. Actually, the four foundation bloodlines mentioned all came from the Whitehackle. Whitehackle roosters are the foundation of all gamefowl. Whitehackles originated in England and Ireland and were among the first bloodlines. I am sure that you will not hear of a bloodline that did not originate from these basic four foundations. This article is for the purpose of western fowl. Oriental fowl do not have the four foundation bloodlines in them because they are of a different origin. ![]() ![]() With the exception of oriental bloodlines. Why did I not mention Sweater’s, Kelso’s, Lemon’s and other bloodlines? Because, if you look at the composition of those gamefowl roosters they are just combinations of the same bloodlines that I have already mentioned.Īll of them are combinations of the Hatch, Whitehackle, Claret, and Roundhead. My cockmates, there are only four foundation bloodlines that are known to most breeders. Because this is a pilot episode I will discuss with you a very important basic topic in raising game roosters. So, cockmates, this is a pilot episode for our facebook and youtube channel. ![]() This is your host Atty Ryan Abrenica for Cutting Edge Veterinary Solutions.
