Some of my relatives in Colombia ( Where cockfighting is still legal ) have raised gamefowl for many years, and probably some flocks of mixed free-ranging birds. One of my grand uncles apparently has a farm where he breeds gamefowl. Never met the guy, but would love too, and experience his birds.
I just find white birds to be rather beautiful, and I would love to preserve heritage breeds. Knowing that a lot of American breeds have or had a white variety that is rare or is extinct makes me want to preserve that variety due to its rareness and history.
If I were to have Icelandics what would I breed for? They are a landrace, and therefore have no set standard. So what would you select for and against to keep the Icelandics, Icelandics. This also applies to every other landrace out there.
