Sadly, I just posted one of these. Of course, that was along with asking questions of three people trying to get rid of their extra roos.

They are on the critical list, according to the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy. We just see more about them because we have more access to them on BYC, but really there's not many breeders out there that are really working with them.

And you didn't tell us?? There are so many of us who want one and would pay quite a pretty penny to get one, you know.

I'm working on some more. They hatch from the double yolks.
