Thought I\'d introduce myself. I\'m a new member, but have enjoyed reading for quite some time. I especially love the posts about the early years of the breed! I currently live in NC but am originally from near Martinsburg, WV, and was given green hatching eggs by a local breeder for a school incubator project around 1979-80. (He said he had \"2 breeds,\" one that laid green eggs and one that laid blue ones. I now understand why he gave me the green ones!) They never hatched, but I retained my fascination with these birds, and was fortunate enough to obtain some LF Black & Wheaten/Blue Wheaten hatching eggs from Wayne Meredith last year, resulting in a couple of nice birds, and I\'m anxious this year to see what they produce. I don\'t know how much I\'ll be posting, since I\'m currently in the sit back, listen, & learn stage, but I\'m sure I\'ll be throwing a few newbie questions your way!
