The Blueface gamefowl bloodline was developed in the 1940s-1950s by American cockers like Sweater McGinnis, J.D. Perry, and Lun Gilmore. It originated by crossing McLean Hatch with Hatch-Claret and Gray-Brown Red lines to enhance speed, power, and deep cutting. Named for its distinctive bluish-grey skin color, this strain is renowned for being an exceptionally fast and aggressive infighter.
