Thanks!
I am going to ask to have this thread closed since the contest is over. Please join us at https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=299038&p=1 for more news on the Icelandics. Hopefully the contest winners will keep us update there too!

My husband and I just finished reading over all the contest entries and we have chosen a winner. This entrant stood out because she is of Nordic descent and I think that would make Sigrid happy. She also lives very close to Sigrid so, climate wise, they should do well. Should the need arise...
Wow, I have several really great PM's already. If you don't win this batch, don't give up. I think I will use the entries as my waiting list for hatching eggs. As they become available I will contact the people on my list to see if you are still interested.

Get yourself and incubator and some inexpensive hatching eggs and get started. You'll be a pro in no time and will feel more comfortable hatching the rarer eggs. Good luck and keep following the winner.
