If someone is selfish with their birds then they really have no reason to complain about anyone else and what they do with their birds. Why join a club that has a MS to preserve a breed? bragging arena or what? Seems counter intuitive to me.
My complaint with Cornish Breeders was in comparison to other breeds and breeders they do not act this way they are very helpful and encourage others regardless of experience to get the birds and raise them and they are eager to help.
Don't defend selfishness.Quote:
Looks to me like you are requiring them to sell their birds to you. You've already vented on this many times. I just get tired of hearing the crying. I've heard many many times why quality LF cornish aren't offered for sale widely and accept that. I figure if they were as easy to raise as barred rocks, they'd not have gotten so "rare" in the first place.
I've seen more than one person here finally get some quality birds and swear they are going to make them widely available, but it never happened. I can only guess that the reason is, they aren't so easy. Just like the breeders of them say. Someone does have some half quality half hatchery ones they've been selling eggs from though. Because hatchery hens lay really well.
