UPDATE: I GOT MY JAVA MUG IN THE MAIL AND ITS BEAUTIFUL....WORTH EVERY PENNY.

Announcement No. 1 - We finally have coffee mugs, caps, tees, i-phone cases and more designed by artist Diane Jacky. Each cup has her signature on it. Who is Diane Jacky you may ask? Diane is an artist that is well known in the poultry world. Her major projects are many of the oil paintings published in the American Poultry Association's Standard of Perfection, as well as many pigeon standards. Diane’s work can also be seen on the covers and pages of many hatchery catalogs and websites such as Murray McMurray Hatchery, Ideal Poultry and Welp Hatchery. For more on Diane Jacky feel free to visit her on the web at www.dianejacky.com. You can order club merchandise here.

Announcement No. 2 -  I would like to welcome Liesa Stiller who has stepped up to the plate and offered to fill the position of District 2 director. Liesa has alot of great ideas and will be an asset to the Java Breeders Club. She is the  web designer for the Uniontown Poultry and Farm Products Association. That club is hosting a 2011 Spring Show. Liesa will be promoting Javas at the show and has asked for a Java Meet. Anyone who lives in that area can visit the website and download the entry form to show their birds. Hope to see lots of Javas. She will be raffling off our new Java designer mugs. Lets show her our club support.

Java Central

We will be in the April newsletter
Looking for some Javas? We have them right here at Java central. Chick season is here in full swing. Javas are the new must have hot item in the chicken world. How do I know?? Because of all the emails that I get from buyers looking for a start-up breeding pen and for all the others interested in eggs and chicks. Make sure to look at our breeders list. We have some of the best Java breeders right here as members in our club. We have Mottled Javas, Black Javas, a few White Javas and theres even rarer Auburn Javas. If you are interested in a chicken that looks good, lays good, tastes good, has a good personality and also is a great forager than you must be needing Javas. Javas are making a comeback and it will take a renewed interest of breeders looking for something different to keep the Java from the brinks of extinction. Make sure to join the Java Breeders of America Poultry club and you will be entered into a drawing for a dozen really fine Mottled Java hatching eggs to be donated by Tacey Perkins the Vice President of the Java Club. Also don't miss all the fine articles in our quarterly newsletter which is due out April first. Make sure Ruth has your contact info so that she can email you the next newsletter. You can contact Ruth at carondesign@yahoo.com or javabreeder@gmail.com.

Once a very common fowl the Java breed had recently been thrown unto the brink of extinction, but with the hard work of a few long term dedicated breeders ( a few who have been breeding for 50 plus years), The Garfield Farm, and other small scattered backyard flocks of Javas it is making a comeback. Let us not forget the dedication of the the ALBC, and the SPPA for putting the information out there.

We are here to stay

Javas in the Poultry Press....If you haven't already subscribed to The Poultry Press Newspaper I would encourage you do so as soon as possible. The Poultry Press has been around since 1914. My dad used to get it in the mail when I was a kid. It is a must have for the serious poultry breeder or for the person who just wants to learn more about standard bred birds. The Java breed club has an ad out for a year plus every month our president, vice president and secretary write a two page or so article about the Java Breeders of America poultry club. I would suggest that you don't miss what they have to say. You can only read it in the poultry press. Here's what the poultry press has to say about its newspaper. "The Poultry Press is a family-owned and run monthly publication in a newspaper format which is mailed all over the world. Poultry Press is the essential guide for anyone who raises, shows or has an interest in poultry.

They have listings in the form of advertisements which will let you know where the shows are in your area.

In addition a listing of the specific breed clubs and national organizations devoted to poultry can be found throughout the newspaper. They also have a section devoted to poultry judges that are available for hire from all over the country and Canada. There are plenty of pictures throughout the newspaper which show you the Champions and their owners throughout North America.
