History of Albany

          Despite the multiple crosses with different gamefowl strains throughout its storied history, the Albany fowl today are surprisingly  still uniform in looks as some of the most handsome gamefowl, still consistent in fighting form and having proven winning records throughout its battlecock lifeline. Few gamefowl breeders from the New York Gamefowl Community as well as some breeders from the South know of nothing better than the Albany, and even among modern gamefowl, fewer are even its match in the pit.


          This gamefowl is one amazing cutter and possessing deep game too. The Reb Williamson Albany is a power hitting rooster that possesses deep game and is very active in the ring. It comes from peacomb and straightcomb. The straight comb Albany is said to be the smarter fighter because it waits for its opponent to make the first move before it reacts, either evading by ducking under the airborne charge or making a counterattack before the enemy rooster can connect.
