Hi merylhelena
does your MERYL show susceptibility to rust? Having the beautiful HELENA SEABIRD as a parent might make it so??? Do you get rust in your area?
I live nea the border of NSW and Qld in Australia, not far from the coast so rust is a problem here. lots of nice mild temps and wind and often showers or buckets of rain.
