I’ve had a bantam Rhode Island red, gold hamburg (both from tsc), and a bielefelder. I’ve seen many more rare/uncommon breeds abandoned at a local garbage dump than I’ve personally owned.

Malines, an old Belgian breed, is the rarest breed I've ever had.

is this indio gigante? I should be given a pair or trio soon.

No these are real Brazilians. Bred by some of the best breeders in Brazil. Indio are mutts bred for size only

Okay? Indio Gigantes would be some pretty consistent looking mutts, if they were truly mutts.

Like all breeds, every breed start as a cross, before they're used in selective breeding for keeping, & eliminating unwanted traits in order to make a breed.

There's an abandoned flock in a local town here led by an old grizzled Asil
