Distribution of White Kelso Gamefowl

In various regional adaptations, these birds are often equipped with fighting gear. Such gear includes metal spurs (known as gaffs) or knives attached to the leg, where the bird’s natural spur has been partially removed. A cockspur is typically a leather bracelet with a curved, sharp spike affixed to the bird’s leg. The length of the spikes can vary, with “short spurs” measuring just over an inch and “long spurs” reaching almost two and a half inches. In the 17th century, some of the highest levels of English cockfighting used spikes made of silver. However, it is important to note that these sharp spurs can pose risks, potentially injuring or even killing the bird handlers.
