[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1398882, member: 25884"] The "dominickers" seem to come and go at the shows. Some I think has to do with the "general" purpose of the breed, but some go to Barred Rocks because they want the pattern to be more defined. And the difference of the rose combed dominique and the s.c barred rock. The dominique is more of a versatile breed as far as being more of a forager from what I have been told. I like the more upsweep to their tails than a rock . Guess that's why I like the Langshans, an almost U shape back with a real upright tail & proud carriage. I think that the Minorcas are the largest of the mediterranean breeds and the best suited for both laying and table use. They are a pretty bird and have probably one of the whitest eggs. Don't see too many of them around anymore either. I don't think I have ever seen them in anything than black even though I think both the white and buff varieties are recognized. Oh if I could, I would have a dozen different breeds....HMMMMM maybe with retirement.... [/QUOTE]
