Does anyone know how many breeds there are available in this country.......and how many breeds there are in the world? Not counting the hybrids - just the purebreeds.

I am not sure Diane. Would love to try and work it out. Would help if I had the new Breed Standards book though. We will have to try and work it out...

May be easier said than done.

There are 48 breed clubs in this Country, however under the umbrella of the Rare Poultry Society is all those breeds that do not have enough breeders to warrant their own breed club, ie Sicilian Buttercup, Old English Pheasant Fowl, Marsh Daisy, etc, etc
