Question here: Now that we have some really nice Roos and hens-- what is it going to take to get them APA approved?

 

[Wynette]

There's a section on Gaining APA Recognition here: http://www.maransusa.org/

They are from the Fitch line and English Marans(clean legged). As far as I know the Fitch is the last of the "old/original" lines that can be still traced person to person. They date back to the time when most people said Marans who?
