“Keeping the classic breeds alive is the only way to preserve genetic diversity and to save animals that have valuable genetic traits breeders may want to breed back into commercial lines in the future (…) They are beautiful, unique animals that shouldn’t be destroyed by commercial breeding (…) If a serious disease ever kills commercial broilers or layers, the entire world will be thanking the small producers and hobbyists who have kept the old breeds of [poultry] from becoming extinct.”
