I apologize for my weak knowledge in english.
Unfortunately in Bulgaria it is not breding chickens like Altsteirer.

this is my site: bulgarianbreeds.dir.bg There are pictures of the bulgarian breeds (Drachenreiter, thank you).

Origin of Black Shumen/Shumenska chicken: small black chicken developed in Bulgaria centuries ago. The name is thought to derive from the lace bonnets of the Shumen region.
In middle of XX century Black Shumen/Shumenska chicken is crossed whit black Minorca and Rhode Island red.

Origin Stara Zagora/ Starozagorska red chicken: this is a breed of chicken which had been developed in Hybrid center of Poultry, Stara Zagora, Gharbia. The local red hens and Rhode Island red male were utilized for developing this dual- purpose breed through selection and breeding system.
