Minorca's

The Minorca has been developed in this country as our heaviest light breed, and was at one time famous for its extra-large, white eggs. Crossing with the Langshan and other heavy breeds did not improve the egg production of the breed, and concentration on exaggerated headgear had a similar effect. Those times are passed and wiser counsels now prevail. The result is that a much better, balanced type is aimed for on the show bench with moderate size of lobes and of comb, and a more prominent front.
The present Minorca Club was formed in 1963. As a Club we very much welcome new members and there are plenty of experienced fanciers to offer help to anyone who needs it. For the exhibitor we have three Club Shows each year namely The national at Stoneleigh, The Federation at Stafford, and the Scottish National at Lanark. many other shows throughout the UK put on classes for Minorcas.
