Poultry breeds photos: The Large Old English Game

The Old English Game fowl has its historical origins centuries ago, being kept for pleasure and cockfighting which was made illegal in 1849. Many people began keeping the fowls for exhibition purposes as they are today. In about 1930, the Game fraternity split, with the 'exhibition type' birds being looked after by the 'Carlisle Club', and those of the more original form creating the 'Oxford Club', hence we now have separate varieties - the Oxford and the Carlisle. A host of colours are available in both varieties, and competition in the exhibition world is fierce, particularly with the Carlisle variety, which regularly wins top awards at shows.
