My Grandfather got these Radios from Kenny Smith back in 1987. Grandpa would also do some trading with Johnnie Jumper to keep his Radio Blood fresh. He liked to cross them with his YLH to show birds. Johnnie Jumper originated & named the Radios. Here is what Johnnie Jumper said, "Cecil brought me a rooster to train one time... and this rooster was very noisy. He was happy, happy all the time. So, I trained him, and uh I'd exercise him and he was just so noisy. He had a great mental attitude. So, I named him Radio. I gave him the name Radio cause he talked all the time. And that...that name stuck with those chickens since 1962. And course people call "you the man that invented uh come up with the radios?" and I say well I come up with this one rooster you know and so I bred him to 1 Kelso hen then I bred him back to 7/8 of him and that's how the...and I still have that family to this day. We call them Radios but they are red chickens with yellow legs. Their basic bloodline was 1/2 Whitehackle I was telling you about and 1/2 Murphy. They come from Mr. Murphy up in New York. That's what the rooster was made up of, but we still have them today and they have such a great mental attitude. That's so important...the mental attitude."
