Having any luck with info?I've wanted to start a breeding project ( breeding to the APA SOP ) for awhile and had a hard time picking birds because no breed stuck out over another breed. Then I came across Black Crested White Polish, a color I had forgotten but always loved because their color is unlike many others. I've researched about this color variety on these forums and across other parts of the internet. I couldn't find much but did discover that this breed sort of died out in the US and it's very difficult to come across someone working with them seriously, if there is even anyone at all. I was wondering if the only place to aquire them is ideal poultry, or if there is another possible bloodline out there? I was also curious if in the case that I wouldn't be able to find another bloodline, what impact would breeding these birds to another polish color for better type or even crossing to breeds that possibly went into creating this color have on my breeding program?
Pictures pleaseI have a trio from IDEAL (used to be a quartet). The hens look okay, 1 is certainly better than the other. The male..... ehh..... He looks better than the one on the website, but not by much
Do you know what the proper recipe is for Black Crested White? They're not supposed to have black in the tails, he way these birds do.These birds are clearly Silver Columbian with a hackle Melanizer like Melanotic like the Vorwerk as their black also extends to their hackel

The ones in the picture shown by the OP show plenty of black on tail and even some form of black spangling.Do you know what the proper recipe is for Black Crested White? They're not supposed to have black in the tails, he way these birds do.
I wouldn't know. Like I said, they're hatchery birds. The female with the larger wattles and crest was the totally wrong chick color too.Oh it was your birds.

I believe they are eb/eb(Partridge), Db/Db(Restrictor) and Ml/Ml(Melanotic)
I just discovered the polish breed this past September I purchased a pair from the Kansas state fair the hen passed away a few months after but our rooster is doing great kids named him Oreo lol we’ll be looking to get him a new mate in the spring and raise some chicks as wellI've wanted to start a breeding project ( breeding to the APA SOP ) for awhile and had a hard time picking birds because no breed stuck out over another breed.
