Yes, good work Steve.  It takes many generations to make varieties like that.

John McDermott lives near Rochester, Minnesota, and he is in the middle of improving his line of Buff LF.  I gave him the last LF Wheaten male I had, one which had been hatched and raised by Jeff Sonsalla.  It had some of Barb Campbells Wheaten line blood in it, and was quite nice.  Anyway, John crossed the Wheaten male over his Buff females, and has about 3 dozen hatched from the F-2 generation.  he is already considering culling for color faults.  So progress is being made, and I can't wait to see the end results of his project in another year or two.

I'm continuing to improve large buffs in PA, lost a 30 flat of eggs due to an incubator failure but I do have some older chicks out and some more eggs to set.    I'll try attaching a photo o a keeper 2025 cockerel.

No problem Elijah, I just wanted all our members to be aware of the change. I will also include it in my a president report and include the newly revised meet policy in our upcoming newsletter. 😊

Exhibiting, Promoting & Club Notes / Re: ABA and APA ads 2026
Last post by John W Blehm - April 23, 2026, 11:46:28 AM
Below are our Alliance club page ads for the 2026 ABA and APA yearbooks. We've been doing these for many years, with at least the top 1/4 of the page promoting the Alliance and offering up to six individual ads to members that what to place their individual ads within it and at the same time help to defray the cost of the full page to the Alliance. As always, the total cost of each of these ABA and APA pages is divided by six to come up with the cost of the individual member ads.

Looks to be more "penguin pattern, or Clown faced" typical of blacks?
