Quote: I have a young pair of black breasted red Cubalaya...and I love them. Very beautiful birds.

Quote: I've got you covered, Jen. I'm so sorry to hear of your loss.

Here's a few pics of my young Barred Hollands.

I refer to the difference in the two as barring being very distinct and bold, whereas the cuckoo is rather "smudgey" and difficult to distinguish the lines between black and white. Not sure if that's the best description, but as I said, I'm no good at putting it into words. I know them when I...

fowlman01...would you please put into words and explain/clarify the difference between barred and cuckoo? I can visually tell the difference in the 2 varieties in my flocks, but it's very hard to find the right words to explain it to other folks.

Math Ace ...head north to Michigan and I'll set you up with a nice quad of heritage Delawares.

Quote: Shelley , I plan on being there saturday morning and if you would like can point you to Bill Mayer. I will be there bright and early Saturday morning as well. I look forward to meeting you in person. And I would absolutely love to meet Mr. Mayer as well. I guess I better get to...

Don...will you be attending Frankenmuth? I'll be there picking up some birds from WI. I would really be honored to meet you.

Maybe my research will yield of source for someone with his line. That would be so great! This research is gonna be so exciting!!!!! I've had my eye on the Sumatra for a couple of years, but I've just had too much of everything else going on. Maybe I'll downsize more than I originally...

Quote: Hi Don! Sumatra have just began to tickle my fancy, so I've never heard of Bill Mayer...yet. I'm beginning my research on the breed so I'm sure I'll dig up lots of info about him. They sure are a gorgeous bird, that's for sure. So sad though...I'm downsizing my breeds so Sumatra...

Rock N' Faverolles : Just because they aren't in the standard does not mean they aren't heritage. Well maybe some feathers will be ruffled after all. David I agree completely. I wanted to say that, myself, David...but I was skeered to.

Yard full o' rocks : VERY pretty....and unique looking!!! Thank you! Their look is another big reason why I chose them.

Yard full o' rocks : Quote: Shelley is that a pix of one in your avatar?? Yes it is. That's a pullet from this spring's hatch.

No, Orloffs are no longer in the standard. I breed according to the WAY OLD standard that was given to me by a fellow breeder. I don't know if they're considered heritage or not...I initially got them because ALBC lists them as critically endangered and authentic ones are very hard to come by.

I love this thread...so much wonderful information and such extraordinary birds! I have rosecomb RIR, Barred Holland, Russian Orloff, and Chantecler. I also have worked extensively on Delawares, but have decided to sell my entire flock so as to concentrate more on my other breeds. I quickly...
