Practical Poultry  |  No.125 Araucana
It was very interesting chatting with
Priscilla Middleton for this month’s Me
and my birds feature. How refreshing
to meet a poultry enthusiast who’s
enjoyed a lifetime’s involvement with
chickens, ducks and geese, and is still as
enthusiastic now about the birds she keeps
as she was when she was a girl.
Refreshing, too, to come across someone
prepared to speak their mind on issues that
matter. I don’t doubt that some of Priscilla’s
ideas will ruffle feathers within the Fancy,
but her views are founded on common
sense, and never expressed with anything
other than gentle consideration.
Perhaps most controversial of all is her
suggestion that it makes no sense to regard
today’s pure breeds as being ‘set in stone’;
the definitive article with which tinkering is
all but forbidden. Priscilla takes the view
that most of today’s pure breeds are man made
creations; essentially products of
the fashions and whims that were popular
at the time they were made. So why should
change be halted now?
