Blood Roan Shortwing

Breed name: Blood Roan Shortwing

Bird inspiration: Crimson-Hooded Manakin

Class: Shortwing

Subclass: Standard

Overview
Despite their intimidating name, these shortwings are among the most friendly and docile. Complete cinnamon rolls, they are deeply invested in whomever will give them their next treat, and are especially fond of apples. Trustworthy with both delicate jobs and with children, blood roans are a common sight on farms on the southern islands.

Coloration and Conformation
While the wings, tail, and most of the body are deep black, the head, neck, and chest are often bright, iridescent red. The shade of red and how far it extends can vary from one peg to the next, but their striking colors make them a good addition to any farm looking to add a splash of color.
