Who has these birds now? Did they lay a nice white egg? The hen pictured at top, I can see leghorn, dorking, and rock in her based on her type, I can see parts of them in her

 I dont know who is getting the birds, they are still in progress so they are not all laying white eggs yet.

There are too many breeds and varieties in the world to have them all... but its too hard just to choose a few.

Currently breeding Bantam Orpingtons, Anconas, White Faced Black Spanish, and RC Rhode Island Reds.  Also have Buff, Blue Swedish and Runner ducks along with Chinese Geese.

I have been reading this thread and keeping to myself.

I thought everyone was giving up on these birds.

It would be nice to see these birds make a comeback.

The white is very nice, but even the peach would make the birds hard to forget.

The lacing is very nice.

Has any progress been made lately?

I would definitely be interested in a few eggs/chicks if someone is on the east coast.

Always in search of the hard to find.

How is their temperament? How big do they get? And how close to the originals are they?

Well I took what I thought to be the best trio of my fathers flock. After educating my self over the past five months about a project I had no involvement in while he was living, am very proud of what my dad accomplished in the six or so years he worked on them. Personally I believe they have great type and are at the standard weight. I am looking to improve on lobe color, head and comb consistency and pureness of feather
