Saddle - Sparse, broken or thin saddles are to be avoided.
Wings - Wings that are held above the vertical are undesirable. Birds with wings nearly horizontal should be disqualified. Wings should not drag the ground to the point of being tattered. They should clear the ground just enough to be intact and well groomed. Wings that drag the ground and are constantly dirty, tattered and broken are to be strongly discouraged. Legs - Legs should be long enough to keep the wing just above the ground. Very short legs are often the result of the creeper gene, and this is very undesirable in Serama, as this is a Chabo (Japanese bantam) trait, and is also a lethal gene. Very short legs make for ragged, tattered wings which drag the ground. Short legs are to be disqualified. Legs should be of medium length, but not long either. Very short legs, which are so short as to have little or no actual shank are also a disqualification. More than four toes is also a disqualification. Feathers - Thin, sparse, picked, broken, ruffled, partially frizzled or coarse, rough feathering is undesirable. Only smooth, well textured, medium tight feathers are allowed. Comb and Wattle - Combs should be small to medium to present an elegant and refined look. Combs of less than five points are to be disqualified. Wattles also should not be overly large. Long pendulous wattles, very large combs, combs which flop over and combs or wattles with folds and thumb marks are to be strongly discouraged. Appearance The condition of the bird is the essence of good rearing and show preparation. Birds which are dirty, with excessively broken, roughed or tattered feathers, those which are pale faced or showing any kind of disease or physical problems should be disqualified and removed from the show.
