I received an email today with a question that I did not have an answer to.  I will paste the question below, hopefully someone will know the answer.

Do you know if the Crossroads show is the qualifying meet for the lavender ameraucana bantams to get into the standard?

Just wondering,

Thanks,

Melinda Hoffman

Mike Gilbert:
There has been no announcement, so we would have to conclude the answer is no.   Do we have five breeders who have bred them five years or more?

I\'m sure we do, but still don\'t think the club has any plans to go thru the recognition process any time soon especially with the problem the ABA has with \"lavender\".

bantamhill:
My notes show that there was no consensus to go with self blue as a name over lavender, in fact the opposite is true. My understanding is that the name \"lavender\" is very important, and is/was more important than APA/ABA approval at this time. I believe the board has decided to hold off and work on other breeds to get the name lavender to be viewed as acceptable before applying. Technically, the rules allow you to use any name for the color that the breed club wants.

faith valley:
Thank you for clearing that up.  I will forward this info along to Melinda.
