Thürigian Bearded Bantam (Critically Endangered Breed)

[ChickenCameFirst]

Sounds like you’re gathering lots of different kinds for 2026. And ideas as to what all you’ll have? Are you going to be trying to breed for color?

Oh my, what a beautiful little bird! I'm just responding to Page 1 of this rhread, I'll go back and read the rest. I want to know what color your little fellow is but I'll probably find out as I read. They are adorable, really! I've not had bantams because of hawks, but if I did ... !

Yeah, most them have rose combs over here too. I think in about two generations I'd be able to line breed them back to Baby Bee or split them off with other Thüringer roosters to get Duckwing and other varieties.

That's super cool! 1 person can legally take up to 12 eggs to the states with them, and I usually go to Texas every summer to visit family so if be able to bring 12 eggs with me to stabilize a good breeding flock of a couple different color varieties of the Thüringer bantam!

Where did you learn that? It's not actually legal to take up to 12 eggs to the states unless you follow strict importation procedures.
