Have you tried the oregon poultry swap inc group or the washington pnw rare breed group (both on fb). OPS has an extensive network of registered vendors/breeders that participate in their events and sell year round through the group....the networking will be key to finding hidden gems in someone's breeding pens

I have not. I don't know about those other than the swap we were going to have was rescheduled for late October.

Also, I'm not on Facebook. I'll see what I can find

I'm not finding anything credible. Some day.

Anyone need a 14 month old whiting true blue hen (5-6 big blue eggs/week) or 6 week old speckled Sussex cockerel. Both Murray McMurray sourced. St Helens....can meet within reason

There is at least one person in Washington working with them per the rare breed group....I can ask for contact info if you like

I found a place in Canada. Problem is the operation sounds kinda shady. There is also a place down south, but I don't like paying much for shipped eggs because it's like setting your money on fire. Greenfire is out of stock.
I'll keep digging.

Well, I had it book marked but, it doesn't look like they're offering them this year? You could inquire as to when they'll start again.....

Ark is no longer keeping them. Low fertility and poor egg laying was what did them in. Low fertility is kind of surprising to me.

Well, with the advent of this Pandemic and work being scarce (work for school district) I was unable to order the fancy chicks I wanted so badly from Alchemist Farm...... (I will in the future). Today I received my Meyer chicks all the way from Ohio in 30 hours from hatching, woohoo!
1 BCMs
2 of each: EE, Welsummer, Dominique and Barnevelder
All arrived hale & hearty, clean butts, great feet and beaks and good appetites One EE is the fluffiest chick I've ever seen, she almost has owl eartufts! The other EE is significantly smaller, solid black with blue shanks and very little beard.
