Pumpkin

Hulsey Gamefowl

Welcome to the Pumpkin Patch!

MICHAEL

Archangel Michael [Mika'il] is the leader of all the Archangels and is in charge of protection, courage, strength, truth and integrity.

Mika'il: This proud fellow is as game as gamefowl come. Each morning, in that forbidden hour leading into dawn when he trills on his trumpet and awakens the homestead, I declare, he just might be the archangel Michael himself. Mika'il is mated to the two hens pictured.

URIEL

Archangel Uriel is one of the wisest Archangels when it comes to problem solving and creative insight. He is very subtle.

Uriel: This big framed fellow is unrelated to Mika'il and Azrael. I have him penned with the 2 pumpkin hens shown above.

GABRIEL

Archangel Gabriel is the exalted Messenger of God, whose name means "The Strength of God."

Gabriel: I cannot express fully my delight in this gilded fellow. I refer to him as my eye candy. I can hardly wait to get a clutch of eggs under the brood hen once his harem of two come of laying age.

AZRAEL

Archangel Azrael is the much feared Angel of death. His primary role is to help the newly deceased cross over to Heaven.

Azrael: is a full sibling to Mika'il above. I have never decided which I like the better. Azrael is penned with a duo of nice pumpkin hens.

I acquired my gamefowl solely for their aesthetic beauty and self sufficiency. I do not pit them, neither do I market them for that purpose. However as a farmyard fowl they do have the right stuff to survive the predation of fox, bobcat, hawk, and owl, etc. on the open range. They are flighty and at night roost high in the trees. Still they are quite friendly and gather around my feet when scattering the grain.

Given free reign and raised in an open colony these cockerels do not fight to the death, but they do develop a heirarchy. Such as to say, it would be foolish and not to mention cruel to pen two mature cockerels together.

I have a particular liking for the ginger color and in feathered fowl I find none to compare with that of the Pumpkins. The pumpkin Hulsey cockerel is arguably the most beautiful gamefowl in the world. That said I prize my pumpkins as I would anything of artistic relevence.

When I am in mind of my fowl there can be no doubt God has had a hand in their making.

Barring unforseen obstacles, I should have fertile eggs I can ship beginning in the Spring of 2011. -Geo.
