    I'm glad everyone likes it, I thought it was a neat little bit of history and had to post it!

    I'm curious - the card also says pit fowl in the upper right hand corner. Obviously I know the Colby's historically for their pit dogs. Does anyone have any historical information on what type of pit fowl they raised or even some old pictures of their birds?

    Maybe I will shoot ColbyDogs a PM to see if he knows anything on the matter.
