    Showing Fayoumis Chickens

    I love Fayoumis chickens and would love to breed them for show, but am unsure of if that is possible. Are they accepted as a show breed in the U.S? Is there a breed standard? If so, is there certain U.S areas that wouldn't accept them?

    Best For Show

    What would be better to do to obtain good show birds....Buying from a local breeder, or ordering from hatchery? I like doing both, but night sure would be best. I hear....and for me it is true....That raising chicks, you "bond" better than older birds. What is your opinion, thoughts, or advice...
