Racial Poultry With the illustrations of roosters of various poultry breeds, the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of the German Democratic Republic issues six multicolored special postage stamps. Special cancellation from January 23 to March 22, 1979 l0 Pfennig value: Chabo, Siro A bantam from Japan. The small, very deep figure is caused by the very short runs. The very large, upright carrying tail and the feathery neck are seen from the side, due to the very short back, a narrow U or hairpin shape. The comb is very large, especially in chicken. Everything is "very" deep on one side, but also very "big" on the other side. The animal looks almost "grotesque". The body mass is 600g for the cock and 500g for the hen.
