Absolutely gorgeous! Stunning.

No, I was thinking of maybe importing some hatching eggs next year just for myself, as I will be traveling to the UK next summer, but not interested in doing it on a larger scale than that. I also just find it fascinating that there are breeds & varieties out there that we don't have here in the...

Very true, I was imagining carrying some back rather then having them shipped but I suppose if I were to take a week's trip with the show being at the beginning of the trip it would be doable.

Good point! If I were to do it I would probably try hatching eggs...I know they are risky but a LOT less expensive to bring in as you don't have to pay for quarantine...not sure if you could get hacthing eggs at a national show though, I assume not...

You would import Silkies and Polish, what color? Not sure what you mean about the roo...I'm talking about importing breeds from outside the US...

any breed or variety, what would it be, and why?? (There have been a few threads about this but I couldn't find anything that recent). Really interested to see what people are itching for nowadays...
