Some really nice birds here Buster. I was told the Doncaster show, one of the sellers birds had lice.

That's not good is it

This one is really nice and the pick of the 4. A lovely wide inner circle serrated and plenty of waves in the iris. Should breed well.

A different eye but still a nice eye. At first glance the iris looks full but because of the orange iris being on a yellow circle of colouration it’s not until you look closer that you can see there is still a good amount of room. The inner circle although not as wide as the previous one still a good width. What I like about this inner circle is it’s all one colour with no dark shading so plenty of room to absorb one that is fuller of dark shading.

Your learning more about eyesign Buster
I’m not that keen on this hens eye. Although the iris and circle of colouration are good the inner circle isn’t. It is virtually non existent between 12 & 3 o’clock with the iris coming right into the pupil. I think you would struggle to breed much out of this one.

This one is nice. A super wide inner circle of just violet and lots of waves as well as being well serrated. The only thing I have against this one is the fullness of the iris. It is very strong and mountainous but you can’t see hardly any of the underlying circle of violet.
