Over the last couple of days, we've been discussing eye color & leg color on the Spangled ROs on the facebook page. There seems to be some concern on what is the appropriate eye color as it is specified differently in the current standards available. Also questions arising over some birds having white legs then becoming yellow. Is this something that commonly happens with young birds or just certain ones and are they worth keeping around till they mature to see if legs become yellow. Over all we've had a lot of good opinions & input on both so far.

According to the UK Standard they allow White flights.
"The Spangled Male plumage: Hackles rich orange, with white tips to as many feathers as possible. Back rich mahogany. Wings rich mahogany with black bar showing green or purple sheen, and white flights. Breast solid black with white tips, blotchiness or washiness undesirable. Tail green black. Female plumage: Light mahogany with white tips, the spangling to be as uniform as possible."
Taken from there LF SOP Section. My vote is we allow them maybe even make it a desirable trait.
