Breed info on Norwegian Jærhøns (Jaerhons / Jaerhon)

I have a medium sized flock of Jaers, I plan on a fall hatch, and hopefully a shipment of Flame jaers as well as normals from Sand hill.
I have a grey who was marked as a cockerel from Ideal, I had one last year that I got locally, but she was killed by a dog.
My birds are in runs as I can't ensure their safety if they free ranged.
My DH is of norwegian heritage so we mostly got them for that, but realized HOW rare they are.
I will have hatching eggs available next year if any are interested.
I'll try to get pics up soon

Many thanks go to amyable, who went to great lengths this fall to ship this beautiful Jaerhon rooster to me! Amy has lovely, healthy stock and I am so pleased to have Omro in my flock.

This photo is of Omro with 2 of his Jaerhon hens. The top one is typically-colored, the other is white and grey only, no tan. Has anyone else had white girls occur in their breeding stock? I've had 2 "pop up" over the past few years and I love the look!
