I have the standard gold laced polish, and they have given me some pretty babies this year, but I would rather have the bantams. The problem is, I can't find anyone who sells bantam gold laced polish.

I used to show Persians too..back in the 80's. Quite a while back. Had some beautiful cats, one of my favorites..Our Dilute Calico. She was a little stinker.

Wonderful family, very understanding husband when it comes to chickens, dogs, birds, one big Golden Retriever, and thankful to the Lord for all!
