Lamona Mystery - Extinct? Just a couple of questions.

Quote:
I wonder though...... if you have two flocks hidden lets say in Lousianna and Maryland and a hurricane wipes out the Lousianna flock then there is just the Maryland flock and then Obama outlaws chickens or decides to to institute his plan of "Cock and Trade" to tax chicken owners for the polution that chickens are known to produce. (Now all you Obama supports don't e-mail me and rip me to shreds just go out and sniff your coop and tell me weather your coop is contributing to air polution). So the owners of the Maryland flock decide to wait for a government bailout and in the meantime the flock decides to move to a different country to avoid the negative publicity on cable network news programs.... then what?

My super-computer is still working on that calculation of how many Lamonas should now be walking the planet.

Then again someone mentioned that this was a government project all along and the first thing that sprung into my head was Area 51. Does anyone else get that tingley feeling of all their hair standing up on the back of their neck to think it may be a government conspiracy? A controlled government facility devoted to our beloved Lamonas..... I like it. If we can pay $200,000 to study the mating habits of tree-frogs and build a bridge for turtles to get to the sea... I think we can spare a couple of million for our little Lamonas.... WHO'S WITH ME?

I'm not sure I really even care about the Lamonas, but I like the way you think...

There were a couple of breeders who claimed to have Lamonas, but I do not believe it. They would not allow it to be verified. What you had were a couple of breeders claiming they had Lamonas but who did not. Instead, They were/ are working to re-create the breed and then going to claim they were some of the originals.

The ALBC investigated the two flocks of alleged Lamonas. One has "disappeared" and will not answer phone calls, letters and emails. The other flock was determined to not be Lamonas. The ALBC is considering the Lamona exstinct.

However, I may ahve found a small flock. A poultry judge friend has a small flock and is allowing me to have a few hatching eggs. Will have to wait and see if they mature into the real Lamonas.

Meanwhile, we have started a breed club to help support the Lamonas. Hoping someone with them will wake up and share. If these are Lamoans I get, we will share them asap.


Our breed club discussion thread is at Lamona Chicken Fanciers Thread
 
Very interesting!!!
Good luck with with the eggs... it would be great if you could help bring them back.
I am too much of a newbie to even consider something of that caliber, but I think it is AWESOME!!!
 
Jim,

Thank you for the heads up. Have you seen the birds the judge has yourself, or pictures of them? I look forward to the results.

Ryan
