Our Foundation Roosters
Our birds are comprised of the top junglefowl lines in the United States that include lines from Rodney Michael, Isaac Richardson, and Nyia Doua. We do comprehensive research into the validity of each strain prior to their acquisition. Acquired birds are evaluated using three equally important criteria: phenotype characteristics (physical), crow quality (behavioral), and pedigree (lineage). Only birds that meet the highest degree of qualifications in all three areas are kept and used in our strict breeding program. Without further adieu, let me introduce you to our roosters.
Southeast Asian Red Junglefowls (Gallus gallus spadiceus)
Our two Laos strain males are from the nationally recognized line attributed to Nyia Doua of St. Paul, Minnesota. Nyia Doua has personally stated that my two males are the purest of the line still in existence. As a testament to the rarity and high percentage Laos strain of my two breeders, Nyia Doua has requested to purchase either one back in order to re-establish his line.
Our Laos/Thai strain male and our Thai Strain male are our finest production to date. They are from in-house breedings that blend the two highest percentage Southeast Asian junglefowl bloodlines, the Nyia Doua Laos strain and our very own Thai strain. No boasting is necessary as their rare combination of looks and crow quality speak for themselves.
Note- Our two Laos strain red junglefowl males and our Laos/Thai strain male are high-crossed specimens and not to be confused with 100% pure birds. Consequently, these birds are hardier, tamer, and may possess other features that are not typical of wild 100% pure red junglefowls.
Indian Red Junglefowls (Gallus gallus murghi)
Our Rodney Michaels strain male and our Isaac Richardson strain male (gallus gallus murghi) are the purest strains of red jungle fowls in the U.S. Both birds possess excellent wild-type qualities and have excellent crows. They are both used sparingly in our breeding program to strengthen our bloodline.
Note- If you are looking for 100% pure red junglefowl in the United States, look into the Richardson strain and various Rodney Michaels strains as the two are the closest to being pure you will find.
Nyia Doua Strain Laos Red Junglefowl
Full Breeding Plumage
Our first rooster, Breeder#1 aka "The Producer", is a direct offspring of one of the originally imported male red junglefowls from Laos. He is currently over 4 1/2 years old.
The consensus of the elderly Hmong men who have heard this bird in real life is that his crow is close to being an exact replication of a true wild junglefowls and specifically, "one that is very confident." Many state that his crow is great, however, it may friten most wild males because it sounds too confident. They share that the younger males would not seek to challenge this him because of his crow and that only the older more fearless birds would dare to approach.
Accordingly, one of the most dedicated and knowledgeable fanciers of red junglefowls from Fresno, California, Txong Yia Vang, stated, "This bird's crow is the very best I have heard since my arrival into the United States in the late 70's. I have heard people's junglefowls from all across California and nothing comes close."
In addition, Toj Xoom Xai Shoua Yan of St. Paul, MN visited the birds in 2008 and stated, "These two breeders crow exactly like the red junglefowls of Laos. There is absolutely no difference."
Nyia Doua Strain Laos Red Junglefowl
Starting eclipse molt
Our second rooster, Breeder #2 aka "The Line Maker", is a direct brother of Breeder #1 and is also a direct offspring of the originally imported male red junglefowl from Laos.
In referencing his crow the the wild birds of Southeast Asia, Thaijunglefowl.com states, "his crow is very close to perfect!"
Kong Vang Strain Laos/Thai Red Junglefowl
Photographed in November 2009. He is coming out of eclipse and is nearing 2-years old.Our third male, aka "The Truth", is the future of our line. He is a son of Breeder #2 and my directly imported red junglefowl hen from Thailand. At 9 months, he has a great crow and possesses many traits that are representative of the quality we aim to consistently produce. He will be a major contributor in our breeding program in 2009 as he is a true specimen of Southeast Asia with no Indian red junglefowl contamination.I have had three respected breeders evaluate his crow and all proclaim that it is on the same level as my two breeders. Yia Vang of Fresno, CA states, "his crow is a 10 out of 10."
Issac Richardson Strain Indian Red Junglefowl

Transition from eclipse molt to full breeding plumage
Full Eclipse Plumage
This is our 4th breeding male. He is a Richardson strain Indian red junglefowl which is, arguably, the purest strain of junglefowls in the U.S. In all the years of raising red junglefowls, this is by far the best crowing Indian red junglefowl I have owned. He has a nice medium pitch, good third syllable, and an exceptional last note that is lower pitched and cut off sharply and abruptly.
Special thanks to Villagrana Pheasantry for allowing us the opportunity to own this beautiful specimen. In 2009, we will be breeding him to pure Richardson females, my imported Thai hen, and select Laos strain females.
Rodney Michaels Strain Indian Redjunglefowl

Full Eclipse Plumage
Our fifth breeder is our Rodney Michaels strain Indian red junglefowl. He was acquired directly from Kelly Wheelbarger at Read Mountain Pheasantry by a friend in San Jose and later passed on to us. He is currently 3 years old.
In terms of his crow, many state that it is too high pitched, but is considered to be acceptable because it has the correct rhythm and most importantly, an abrupt ending.
Kong Vang Strain Thai Red Junglefowl
At 5-6 months
At 8 months
11-12 Months Old (November 2009) 
Introducing to the world, our 6th foundation breeder, our Thai junglefowl stag aka "Ongbak." This priceless bird's father is "The Truth" aka our Laos/Thai Stag (see above) and his mother is our very own imported Thai junglefowl hen. He is the product of line breeding our Thai strain and is composed of 75% Thai junglefowl and 25% Laos junglefowl.
As of July 2009, he is 8 months old. He has begun crowing and is already mating, successfully, with select Laos strain hens. Email us further to inquire about future offspring.
