I do see what you mean.
I just don't see why, if you have a color that breeds true AND the bird is true to type, it isn't accepted right away.
Heavens! We sure wouldn't want any WA DC overtones here! LOL
Well, like I said, I will keep you ladies with the Chocs in mind for the future.
Have you...
Is that really all it takes to get them accepted? Showing them? I thought there was some mysterious, nebulous APA vote based on so many generations bred! Lol
Seriously though, is it just the showing? I have a lot to learn in the showing dept!
You bet! I am coordinating with the breeder to get them here. She is awesome…so generous and helpful!
These birds are going to be 4H show birds for my twins. They are so excited! Truth be told, I am excited for them. Should be so much fun!
Thanks for the pics!
We ended up finding some whites and blacks that we are going to go with for now because they are accepted colors. I will keep you in mind for the future though. :)
We had a single bantam hatch out without another bantam in the hatch. She ended up taking to the two huge sussex in the hatch and was lost without them. It was funny to see her with them because of the size difference but they just acted like she was one of them. :)
