Stupidities

Away with the theory of the black tongue, the feathers on the legs, the black nails or toes, the perfect eyesign, the wanted iris, etc. Old, is the theory requiring a mealy to have as mate a blue hen and also finished is the other which defended two white eyes to be mated together. Real sporting and psychical qualities are worth hundred times more than all these stupidities.
