They were accepted at the Crossroads show and I have met the Krebb Family several times and actually was able to sit in on the presentation where they gave their information to the IWBA for recognition. They are a very cool breed! We first saw them in the early 2000's when they still had the Midwest All Waterfowl Show in Connersville, IN. That family has worked very hard with the breed, has invested a TON of money into their birds and they are well worth what they are asking.
