Rare Chicken Breeds

I am planning to add to my chicken flock and was hoping that someone could remember in which thread the link to the list of "endangered" chicken breeds had been posted. Anyone? I had intended to copy it and never did.

I don't remember either--it is the sort of thing we should remember to put in the "Sticky".

There are endangered breeds? wow... never considered that. I would be very interested in that link when you guys find it.

Yes, when it was posted several people mentioned that a preservation effort was a good excuse to increase their chicken collections. Now if we can just rediscover the list...

This might help:

Thanks, Catscan. "Heritage Chickens", I like that!

I have fertile eggs from my Black Javas available.

Is this the link you were looking for? http://www.albc-usa.org/cpl/wtchlist.html#chickens

American Livestock Breeds Conservancy table for chickens.

I was just going to mention ALBC... great organization. =0)

put it in...

Thanks Grownut for the link in the sticky.

thank you!
