LOL...I found her while you were re-posting her pictures. She is a beauty. I'm just thrilled with the birds you have coming up.

LOL.... I will have to do as Jeremy said, make it into a Valentine card!!

Joy, I ask about other countries because you mentioned Poland. I have a close friend here who is Polish and still has family living in Poland and if I remember correctly, in Germany as well...

What if they have Orps!?

My wheels are turning, too. I am half German and close to that side of the family. I am absolutely certain they have rarely, if ever, been around a live chicken, but it wouldn't hurt to ask...

I think if I could have any 2 colors my first choice would be Diamond Jubilee, they are my dream birds, followed by Chocolate. But only if the Chocolate birds were LARGE fowl. I don't want no stinking bantams!
