With my Welsummers and Black Copper Marans due to hatch on Friday and not expecting a great hatch rate as they appear to have had a rough trip through the mail, air sacks all broken free and 6 of 14 never even started, I started to think further about my plans for next year again...
I have been putting off getting Crested Cream Legbar eggs due to their price and limited lineage in the US...
But, today I can across a breeder that was selling Crested Cream Legbar eggs the are supposedly from some Canadian lineage and not the ever popular Greenfire lineage that most people in the US have... I'm not expecting them to be show quality colors (and I'm not breeding for show) so at least this opens up the door for me to get some Greenfire ones as well and mix up the genetics a bit and work towards a more genetically diverse bird instead of the continued line breeding like everyone else is doing using mostly Greenfire stock...
