What's the rarest breed or variety you have?

You're not NPIP by any chance, are you?

I am not, unfortunately, but I'd be more than happy to direct you toward some NPIP farms to contact for hatching eggs if you have access to a Facebook account. I'm about to sign off for the night to close coops and head to bed, but shoot me a conversation if you'd like and I'll send you some links in the morning.

Where did you get the eggs? If you don't mind my asking.

A farm in CO, I believe. I hatched a lot of chicks in 2020, so I will have to go back and check to be certain

 

[HeatherKellyB]

Oh, I want those too!
You also have Aztec ducks too, right?

Yes, I do have Aztec ducks I've got a little tiny Call duckling sitting on my shoulder asleep right now, as well as adults outside (even though they're not rare). I also have Australian Spotted Duck.

I don't know if I have any rare chicken breeds - I have an Australorp, Barneveldar, Brahma, Speckled Sussex, Welsummer, Gold Laced Wyandotte, Cuckoo Marans, Sapphire Gem, Olive Egger, and Plymouth Rock. Out of all of these, which one sounds the rarest to you chicken breed experts?
(I also have some obviously common ones, like Silkie Bantams, Easter Eggers, and Buff Orpingtons.)

No, you're fine! They are pretty rare still! They're pure Cochin bantams with the silkie-feather gene that makes them look fuzzy like a Silkie.

I have Cream Legbars and recently aquired a Chocolate Orpington chick. So nothing actually rare, but slightly more uncommon.

Maybe the brahma. All are fairly common

How rare are good bred RBW?

 

[townchicks]

Mottled Java, but I guess they're not that rare anymore as they have already been mentioned several times.

I guess my bantam Cornish aren't very common either. Freaking love those birds though.
