Hi Dorinda,
Are you the lady who has sablepoots- from Bev in Cheshire? If so how are they faring. We saw Bev at the Fed yesterday, her birds had done very well.

Yes and no - , my poots are my own originals, but I did buy a cockerel from Bev last year, but had problems with the stability of the resulting chicks colour - so I did't keep him - I've had poots for a very long time - my birds here came with me from France as eggs.. so I have kept my original line, hatched 70 last year, it was a real shame a lot of the sabelpoot breeders didn't manage to get to the show, I heard there were a lot of empty cages - Alex from Wales and myself left 10 cages without birds.. scottish National next month at least I should be able to get thereelmwood said:

Hi,
Thankyou- that explains things nicely. WOW- 70 poot chicks, what a scene that conjuresd up!! :mrgreen: Yes, there were quite a few empty cages.....We had a sablepoot from Bev earlier in the year, and your name cropped up- (in a very admiral manner)
Our poot is quite a lady, and whilst I think they are very striking, I am really taken with our Tillie, a Barbu D'Uccle- just love her facial fluff.
Would be lovely to see some photos of your birds when you get the opportunity.
Best of luck with the Scottish National.
