I thought it was an ok price and he was willing to take as many as I wanted to sell, which will be about 20 pair if the sexes are fairly even. I was going to keep all my silvers and the original breeding guys 3 hens and a roo. He offered me more for the silvers and he told me about his brother who kept his silvers and kept breeding them and after two generations the whites appeared. So I thought I would give it a go.
