The Livestock Conservancy is what I and a lot of others that breed old breeds would call a fair to good organization. There divination of "heritage" needs a lot of work because it leaves out a lot of old breeds, breeds that have been around far longer than any of the breeds that are in the SoP...
I understand, The R.I. Whites are a very good breed.
Even though the R.I. Red and the R.I. Red are two different breeds some breeders of R.I, Reds have a fair knowledge of the R.I. White so some Red breeders may be able to help you.
When your Whites come from Sandhill and you if you plain on...
The thing is if bred correctly, and no other single comb breed is added you should never see a odd single comb come out of a true Rhode Island White (R.I. White) breeding.
The same hold true for most rose comb breed, I myself have raised rose comb Rhode Island Reds for over 10 years and never...
Keep in mind that the Rhode Island Red and the Rhode Island White are two completely different breeds.
They are just two breeds that have the same place of origin the state of Rhode Island and the same APA standard but that is it.

There is NO Single Comb Rhode Island Whites, What you have is a cross breed from a hatchery that mislabels them as a Rhode Island Whites.
