Any SOP/Exhibition Poultry Breeders?

Wondering how many people here are in the standard bred poultry hobby? If so list what you breed. I have modern games in various colors, mille fleur and golden neck d'uccles, and black Sumatra bantams. Also just got chicks from a "show line"

I'm planning on showing, just need to get set up to be able too.
Mostly want to do Game breeds for that purpose. Also some None Games, just still planning on what that will be.

What breeds in general? The games are a favorite of mine as well. I hope to breed every game fowl in the standard one day

Alot of us American Gamefowl people are trying to get the Largefowl kind recognized by the APA actually. The bantams are already accepted, & have a standard.

I've old bloodline Malays which are the original before they got changed for the APA/SOP.

I'm actually trying to get into that. the trouble is so many strains of American gamefowl slightly differ in type and comb that I feel it would be hard to set/agree on a standard

Comb type shouldn't matter, neither should leg color, & other variables as different strains vary similarly as different breeds do.

I don't in understand what you're saying

I was saying that the slight variation in strains of American Gamefowl should be accepted like different breeds are in the APA.
