  1. Because it is impossible to trace the anchestry of fowl for which there is no registry, it is not surprising that the names of gamefowl families have become a way to define gamefowl by a few appearance characteristics rather than their actual connection to a particular breeder or the family originated by that breeder.

    As a result, almost all pea combed red fowl are likely to be called "Roundheads". In most cases it likely means nothing more than "a red duckwing with pea comb". Nothing more.

  2. Roundhead is one of the most feared bloodlines in a cockfighting match today. It's a very good cutter, brainy and hardy. It has also its off-beat signature style in fighting like the Lemons and Greys. Plus, it also blends well with the Sweaters and Lemons.
