Hello,
Sinds 1986 I raise chickens and always I have had Buff Leghorns.
First Large Fowl and sinds 1994 American type Buff Leghorn Bantams.
In 1994 I placed an order for hatching eggs and they came from Richard L. Stauder.
Sinds I met Danne J. Honour I know now where my BLB came from.
Richard L. Stauder had his BLB from Danne J. Honour in the early 1990's.
Danne J. Honour had his BLB from the strain of Burt Gaude. Burt was the best at that moment with the Buffs.
Sinds I have the Am. type BLB in the Netherlands i have crossed them with the Dutch type BLB, the Lf BL and with the White LB.
They are a little taller then before the crossings but now I have crossed them for the first time with the Buff Dutch Bantams.
The baby chicks and hatching eggs from the mating with the Buff Dutch bantams you can see on youtube by clicking here:

www.aviculture-europe.nl is very nice to visit and you can take the English tour on that digital buletin.
I hope you like the Buffs like I do and that we may do this as long we live.
