Sandhill Preservation Center has chocolates, too. They are high in price, but do allow you to mix chicks and guineas to meet the minimum. No pictures, unfortunately, and they don't reply to emails as fast as Kevin does. Just wanted to throw it out here as an option...

I'm on the turkey color genetics group and have known Kevin for quite a few years before he started that group. I used to be on the RHT group but left, it's way over moderated.
