Heritage Large Fowl - Phase II

[HaikuHeritageFarm]

If anyone knows, it is probably Steven Gribble. He and Bob were very close friends.
Here's his profile page:

Thanks! I've sent him a PM. Hopefully he has some leads. Bob's bantams deserve some dedicated breeders.

Here's the URL to an old auction of Bob's for those bantams. It has some replies to it.
Maybe those folk know who bought some.

In this auction, Bob mentions delivering some birds to a show in 2 weeks. That would be about March 19, 2013. I wonder if it was the 2013 of this show. It seems they have a bantam show this year, maybe last year also?

Maybe ask around their membership?
hum that show is a long drive.

I think I found it. The Heart Of Dixie Bantam Club. ~~325.43 miles 5 hrs 29 from Silverhill, AL. ~~ Next to the other show above. Here are a couple of URL's to their chat boards with contact info. At least one year, their Spring show was march 22nd. That's almost spot on for the RIR Bantam delivery Bob said he was going to make "in a couple of weeks".

PM Matt1616 and see if he has any ideas.

I'm trying to track down someone with the Bob Blosl line of Mohawk RIR bantams! So bummed that I didn't get them last year when I had the chance. He told me previously that he had two very good breeders that had the line, and had also just got a novice breeder in Missouri set up with some birds. (I think this was in 2011.)

Anyway, any leads would be appreciated. I feel really compelled to try to find some of these birds. He loved them so much.

Chris Herzog has bantam reds from Bobs line someone in Ark. too.

I don't suppose there were any rose combed bantam reds in that group, does anybody know?

I have Underwood RC just north of chattanooga, but they are not bantam - sorry.

Anyone know where in Iowa or near Iowa I could get good show quality large fowl silver lace wyandottes or any wyandotte bantam

I've seen those reds on your profile and they are beautiful! I cannot afford to feed any more large fowl though. Wish I could, I just love them!
