"I hope you will consider the Rose Comb Large Fowl variety, as it is an endangered species of fowl. In my judgment during our breeding season, there are less than 100 birds alive in fanciers breeding pens for Rose Comb Red Large Fowl. I hope; you will consider the Rose Comb variety, as it is a variety of fowl that needs lots of help by us Red Club Members to lift it to the ranks that it once enjoyed. Long live the Rose Comb Rhode Island Red Large Fowl."
good stuff, I am soaking this up, starting to sink in, thanks again. TD
