Buff Saddleback Pomeranians, how "rare" are they? (PIC)

[BellLisamo]

I was wondering how rare the buff saddleback pomeranians are. I have a pair, and when I look at hatcheries, hardly anyone carries them. Any ideas?

Awesome ducks!! They're beautiful! I can't put any on my pond because of my 7 dogs. I've tried geese in the barn lot, but they fly the fence & go to the pond. I've been through about 15 geese & 6 or 7 ducks. No more for me.... to risky.

does anyone else know or have these geese?

Sorry, I don't have the Buffs, but I do have the gray saddlebacks. I don't have pics of them at the present.

Are they considered rare??? I found a website that was talking about "preserving the species from extinction"!!!! So i was concerned!

just read this site : http://www.albc-usa.org/cpl/waterfowl/pomeranian.html
it says "Status: Critical."

I have seen these... there is a place in Oregon that has a really nice line - I'll dig up the name. Gosh they really are beautiful! How big are they?
