A ten inch beard is a good one and one inch spurs are as well. What did your bird weigh?

Most longbeards average in the 8.5 to 10" range. You really can't account to much on beards but the longer the better. Anything over 10" and you've got something but long spurs are where it's at. Anything over an inch and a half is really something. My best bird went 22 lbs and had an 11" beard with 1.5 and 1.25 inch spurs.
