who has opals...? i want some... LOL...

If you want good opal, you should contact Carl in Oklahoma (twinlakepoultry), Dwayne in Louisiana or Ron Smith. They are breeding their opal according to the standard that is being waiting for apa and aba approval on recognition of the variety. I have seen a few pics of their birds, they look good. I am not sure if they have any available but it worth to try contact them.

My breeders came from Ron Smith himself.He was the originator of the Opals. I have actually been thinking about selling my trio of Opals from him,hadn't 100% decided though.He is the bird in my Avitar. He has gone through his molt and is starting to bring his sickle feathers back in.

This is Carl, ron and I worked on developing a proposed standard for everyone to breed toward.
Would you like to see the pure Opal, early opal white cross for type, or some of this years young birds? They getting much better.
