I know of someone in Mandeville LA that Breda them. This is one I got from her.

I would be interested in getting their contact info.

I just talked to my friend. She doesn’t breed them anymore. She said to contact Greenfire Farms

Greenfire hasn't had them listed for a while unfortunately.

I’m sorry. That’s the only suggestion she had. I love my hen that I got from her. Good luck.

Just because Greenfire doesh't list Neiderrheiner on their website doesn't necessarily mean they don't have some. In any case, Greenfire can at least let you know what breeders they sold Neids to in the past -- maybe have Greenfire contact their past customers for you and see if the previous customers might still be breeding Neids. Finding rare breeds takes research and tenacity -- don't give up -- Smiles!

It wouldn't hurt to try greenfire but I am not sure that greenfire would be very helpful in pointing you in the right direction to get something that they no longer sell. Maybe the would help but I am pretty pessimistic about greenfire in general.

I did contact Greenfire. They said they don't have any now, but are hoping to again in the future. But that there is no set time frame for when. I hope they do. More lemon cuckoo, the colombian variety, the blue, and the kennsperber (whatever that translates to in English).

I understand that like any of us humans Greenfire has its pluses and minuses -- but in the long run some of us who have rare chicken breeds in our backyards owe most of it to Greenfire for using their own expense to import them in the first place. It's expensive obtaining poultry permits, import expenses, and quarantine compliance facilities for importing rare breeds and that cost does pass down to GF's customers -- who usually are serious breeders and want new bloodlines to improve breed hardiness. Like all businesses, GF carries breeds that are most in demand and what breed availability is purchased from other countries.

I am fully aware of what value greenfire plays in the poultry world in the US. But after what they did with the German Bielefelders and lied to me personally about it I have little nice to say about them. Mistakes I understand, Lying about it not so much.

Kennsperber = what most would call crêle. But it would translate to something in English. They call lemon cuckoo "gelbsperber", which translates to yellow sparrow. And it sounds better to me.

Kennsperber
