About the Black Asil
The Black Asil is a solid, glossy black bird, though some red can flush through the neck and back hackles - close to the APA's 'Dark' variety. Black is one of the typical hard-feather game colours found in the breed rather than a separately fixed British colour. The dense dark plumage emphasises the Asil's statuesque, heavily muscled gamefowl outline.
