Bombay bronze cockscomb

It’s a sad day. My big Bombay bronze cockscomb has done everything he was meant to do and given everything to creating the next generation.  I collected my last seeds from him today.

With his seed collecting coat on. He’s been wearing it for a few weeks. It probably protected him slightly. When the cover blew off the tunnel. 

   


He does a fantastic job of protecting his seeds. 

   

Here he is looking exhausted after his shot, very impressive life.

   

This is what he produced, the entire point of his life. And aren’t they beautiful shiny little seeds. They will go on to beautiful flowers, just like their dad.

   

I’ll miss him, he was awesome     .
