I'd like to see them too. I like the Spalding Opals and not many have good looking ones, I know Sid at Texas Peafowl had them he was a nice looking Spalding then Sid sold him to Josh in Florida and who knows where he is now...

I hate to do this but my Buff hen died and I have not been able to find another one, so my question is we have lots of Chinese Ringneck hens what would I get from this cross? does this work the same way as Peafowl?

Has anyone ever raised this kind of chicken??, Says they are on the Critical List. I have never seen one so I didn't know how big they got or the size and color of the eggs etc.
