Yes, apparently there are 2 Lamona flocks in the U.S. However, the SPPA is keeping the current owners a secret as they do not have any breeding stock for sale at this time. I was told all of this by Charles Everett of the SPPA.

How about narrowing it down to the rarest bird in the USA, developed in the USA? White Rhode Islands?

Lamonas were developed in the US, weren't they? And yeah, playswithfowl, White Hollands would have to be the rarest (if there are any, which is doubtful...).

Okay, how about Delaware Blues or Buckeyes. They are hard to find except a couple of hatcheries are now listing them, but not sure how pure they are.

Delaware Blues aren't a recognized breed, so it's hard to keep track of them. Buckeyes can be found from a handful of reputable breeders across the country, but they're not as rare as the Holland or the Lamona.
