Looking for Twentse Kraienkoppe

[Joyfillednomads]

Anyone know of any Twentse aka kraienkoppe breeders?

I have never heard of them but they look like a beautiful breed.

A few years ago, we ordered some birds from Sandhill Preservation (Iowa), and I recall Kraienkoppe on their chx list. Not sure if it’s the exact one you are looking for, but check it out. They only sell straight run.

Sandhill preservation does sale the Kraienkoppe, and in at least 4 different varieties. As far as I know they are the only current breeder of the breed. I do believe they sale the one you are looking for.

Green fire farm still has their Twentse they are rebuilding their breeding flocks. Waiting for sandhill to call me back on if they know of other breeders and if there a way I could in the future buy more than their limited.

I know the process needed to build a breeding flock and to improve them but gotta get the pens built and established to ensure I don't get nuked by predators.

I didn't know Greenfire still had their Twentse, I thouhgt they just stopped selling them.

If they had a bad hatch for replacement breeders or predators they won't list the breed available to my understanding. I called them to inquire and if they did sold them off if they could direct me to the breeder(s).

Oh. Usually when a breed is no longer on the All breeds page I think they are no longer breeding that breed. The Brabanconnes, Lamona, Izegem cuckoos, Queen silvia, and Frisian gull have all been removed from the All breeds page, but maybe they did just have a bad hatch or predators.

Rule of thumb when in doubt email or call. I'm still waiting for sandhille and will recall sometime this week as I understand they aren't a traditional hatchery.

And updated email from GFF:

They won't have eggs or birds available until 2024-2025 time frame.
