Blackliz: None for sale

Blakliz
The blakliz is our personal line. Named after wife Liza, the blakliz is being extensively bred in RB Sugbo Blakliz Farm in Lawaan, Eastern Samar.
No pure blakliz for sale. And we seldom do blakliz crosses.

Stag/bullstag: P 6,000

Battle stags/bullstags
RB Sugbo stags and bullstags cost P 6,000 each. Sixty-five to seventy percent of our annual production are sold as stags or bullstags. We charge P200 a month per stag or bull stag left in our care. And, P500 per head for conditioning plus standard commission on winnings of the prize money.

Battle cock: P7,000

Battle cocks
Battle cocks, starting from about two years of age, cost P 7,000 each. Most of these are winners as stags or bullstags. We don’t have many battle cocks available for sale. Many of the cocks in our yards have already been bought but left in our care. We charge P200 a month per cock left in our care. And, P500 per head for conditioning plus standard commission on winnings of the prize money.
We charge additional for shipping to any part of the country with direct or connecting flight from Cebu.

Pair: P 18,000

Brood hen/pullets
An RB Sugbo pair of brood cock and hen costs P18,000. In a pair the brood hen or pullets cost P6,000 each. They are bred much like the sugbo brood cocks and must pass equally high standards. A sugbo broodcock cost P12,000, a hen P6,000. Thus, a pair costs P18,000. An extra hen, however, costs P8,000. And, we don’t serve orders for hens without broodcocks. The reason is because there are only as many broodcocks as broodhens. So if we will sell more hens than broodcocks, then we will be left with too many broodcocks for the few hens. Moreover, since the ratio should be at least 5 hens for every broodcock in the yard.
We charge additional for shipping to any part of the country with direct or connecting flight from Cebu.

Brood cock/stag: P 12,000

Broodcock/broodstag
A ponkan and sugbo lemon broodcock costs P12,000. Sugbo broodcocks have to pass standards set by RB Sugbo GT. Except on very rare cases, sugbo broodcocks are at least twice inbred. Meaning it has undergone inbreeding process for two succeeding generations. The line should have registered more than 65% winning performance.
RB Sugbo broodcocks are mostly products of single matings. We always give importance to traits vital to pit performance such as cutting ability, gameness and fighting ability more than phenotypes such as purified plumage color, leg color and shape of the comb.

Ponkan

Ponkan is the name of a broodcock acquired, along with two hens, by RB Sugbo Gamefowl Technology in year 2000 from Pacific Barato. This particular broodcock, sweater in bloodline, was in turn acquired by Pacific Barato from EL Dia Gamefarm of Dr. Ayong Lorenzo. Ponkan is still alive today and active at nine (9) years of age.

From 2000 to 2004, ponkan was bred to different hens. Some were products of line breeding to him. Others were of the lemon guapo, the green legged lemon 84, and lance's roundhead which were all acquired by RB Sugbo GT direct from the originators themselves-- Mayor Juancho Aguirre, Mr. Paeng Araneta and Mr. Lance dela Torre.They are a family of sweaters. I called them ponkans because I called the original sweater brood cock from EDL/Excellence of Doc. Ayong Lorenzo by the name ponkan.

RB Sugbo GT started by mating ponkan with one of the original hens of the trio. Then by repeatedly breeding back to ponkan producing 3/4s. 7/8s and 15/16s of ponkan. In every generation we try to lock the genes by selective brother-sister mating. We then hoped to proceed with the bro-sister matings to produce sub families of ponkan 3/4s, ponkan 7/8s and ponkan 15/16s which, in the future, could be out-breed to one another.

In year 2003, RB Sugbo GT hit a fabulous blend which consisted of 5/8 blood of ponkan, 3/16 of the lemon 84, and 3/16 of Lance's roundhead.Thus, this blend was immediately set into a bloodline which was called "ponkan, the bloodline"in recognition of the dominant contribution of ponkan the broodcock (5/8 or 62.5 percent) to the blend.

Two families of ponkan were created. The light red, yellow legged, and peacomb sweater looking ponkan; and the regular red, dark legged, straight combs.

The light red, yellow legged, peacomb ponkans are the commercial ponkans. But the other family of dark legged, straight combed provides the better cutting and continuously scores a slightly higher winning percentage than the yellow legged peacomb ponkans.

Up to now the pure ponkans are mostly yellow legged and peacombs. But occasionally they throw dark legs or straight combs because the better ponkans invariably come from the inter-family matings of the yellow legged peacombs and the dark legged straight combs--matings that, because of favorable consequence,we have to regularly resort to.

Sugbo Lemon

Sugbo lemon. Our sugbo lemons came about by mixing the lemon guapo, the batsoy, and the green legged 84. Then we put in a dash of the blue face. They are straight combs. RB Sugbo also maintain its own version of the lemon 84. In 2003-2004 Rey Bajenting of RB Sugbo Gamefowl Technology was researching for an article on the lemons for Pit Games magazine when he himself became fascinated with the different lemon strains. The result was not just a most comprehensive account of the history of the lemons but also his initiation to breeding them. Bajenting interviewed such lemon luminaries as Paeng Araneta, Mayor Juancho Aguirre, Lance dela Torre and Joe Laurenio. From these gentlemen he also got beautiful specimens of the lemon. From these materials came about the sugbo lemons.

The Blakliz

The blakliz is the personal line of RB Sugbo. Named after wife Liza, It was not intended for sale. But a few friends and customers insisted and managed to acquire some. Now RB Sugbo breeds two lines of blakliz. The peacombs that are beautiful and sleek looking are semi- commercial line. The blakliz exclusive- straight comb and ugly--remains exclusive, thus the name. The blakliz started with a cross between a 7-time winner Richard Bates black and the blue face. Ponkan, the original broodcock of our ponkan bloodline, was then bred to the black pullets of this black x blueface. The following year the offspring were then bred back to ponkan. In 2005, Jesse Ledesma won the PAGBA stag derby. His last fight was a black bonanza stag that clinched him the championship in spectacular manner. RB Sugbo, through the intercession of partner Raul Ebeo, who was at the derby, managed to acquire said champion stag. This stag was then bred to the 3/4 ponkan, 1/8 bates black and 1/8 blue face pullets. This became the foundation and still the composition of the blakliz exclusive. The peacomb blakliz has some infusion of other bloodlines.
