Just too cute !
Hi Boykin 2010,From what I understand from talking with DEFRA and other places -no one in the US has ever legally imported adult birds to the US from Europe. The paperwork does not even exist as of yet to do so. So everyone who has imported in the US either brought in chicks, or eggs.
There is a ton of paperwork, inspections, planning, time, and especially money in an import. A lot more than most people initially realize.
But importing is essential in getting these new breeds/colors to America for everyone to enjoy. I am glad I play a part in it.
My 'adopted brother/helper' helped me set up three of my seven pens I bought off Craigslist last month and I had to get more pictures. The cockerel is not mean, but I don't think he appreciates me messing with him and the girls. I am aware one has white earlobes. She had the nicest cushion and I was after more Cochin like type for my chocolate bantam Cochin project. I am collecting a few eggs from these guys before I separate them for the Cochin project.
The whole set up:
I am not thrilled with there they are, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. Once I get my stone hauled, things will change. Again.
I have imported BBS bantam Orp eggs coming from tKay, yet.
Really nice..going to be interesting to see your chocolate Cochin project using these..wonder if the white
Earlobe will lessen when used with the cochin..
