Bob I didn't catch the name of the Dark Cornish. I am so tunnel visioned in Orps, it tends to remove any common sense I have when it comes to all the other great breeds. I did my best to squeeze off a few pics of Doug's Rocks for you. Even though I have one of his Rocks, I think of taking pics of them more for you then me. I agree with Doug, your a total asset to any breed. The Plymouth Rock Club is very lucky to have you into the Rocks.

Here are the only two birds I shown who did anything.
Their both BV's and lost to Doug's Buff Orpingtons for the Best of Breed and Reserve Best of Breed,
Here is one of my oldest Black cockerels. I think I have a few who will show better still growing out. He just had to beat my two other Black pullets to get BV

Maybe my best quality bird I entered. She did beat one other breeder's nice Blue hen.
This girl is barely 6 months old. Hadn't laid an egg yet. I can see keepin her around a while

For people that were looking for Standard Cornish I was looking at the ABA 2010 yearbook and it had a list of a few different breeders that have them.

I have a few LF dark cornish. They are one of my favorite breeds. I would love to find some LF whites and white laced reds. I think the LF cornish are one of the hardest breeds to find, and if you find a breeder they hardly ever have any for sale.

I got these from a lady at the Ohio National. I dont remember her name, i would like to add a few from Mr. Keith here in VA. He has some nice darks also. He had some for sale at the ON also but i ran out of money.
