Actually it would greatly benefit a breed if it was only in the hands of a select few deicated breeders. That keeps from everyone trying to mass produce them and their quality going down the chute, very much like how BLR Wyandottes, BC Marans, probably Seramas, and probably the way all these Lav Orps and Coronation and Light Sussex are going to go, everyone trys to mass produce them and sell them and dont breed for quality, just the general color or trait the birds is known for and end up losing it too.
Any I would say those few longtail breeders are NOT in it for the money by any means. Most of them, especially Toni Marie, would rather give birds to someone they know will breed them right than sell them to a random person who doesnt know how to keep the breed. Like last year Toni Marie gave me my two Red Pyle Phoenix roosters and some phoenix eggs for just the cost of shipping after I had talked to her several times before on the phone and via email and exspressed my interest in the the longtail breeds and the respect for the way she breeds them. So people like her are in it for the love of their birds, Not the money.
I understand her dedication and hard work rareroo, but I don't think I got the same respect for being a novice.had the info I got from Celtic hill just been given to me I would have realized it was a demanding breed to keep.I mean no disrespect to anyone,I admire the hard work everyone is doing.just don't judge everyone asking about your project as unfit or unworthy .
