Rare Olandsk Dwarf Chicken Question?

[Namrag]

Someone locally is trying to help preserve this rare true bantam called the Olandsk Dwarf. I was interested in possibly getting some, but I couldn't find any information on their general size.... Everything says "small" does anyone know their general size range? Around 1.5 lbs like seabrights? Silkies/Cochins 2lbs...? Or more mid size like leghorns...4 to 5lbs...View attachment 1697965

Honestly, I don't know weights, but my roo is about 10-11" tall (reminds me of a Seabright) and the hens are small (like a dove). I will say the hens are deceptively heavy for their size.

What?!?!??! They are selling them for $100 each here in farms.

Nope. No bueno! I wouldn't pay that and I live in New England, land of exorbitant prices.

They are only 2000 left in the world and they are very rare why’d wouldn’t they be more expensive? Are we talking about the same breed? I’m talking about the Olandsk Dwarf bantam purebreds

Yes, correct. Here's a picture of my roo. Sell them for whatever your market reflects.
