Who are We?

We are Mark Fields and David Turner. Our Dominiques have been appearing in showrooms across the country for over 20 years. Our large fowl Dominique stock came from a variety of sources including Hemphill, Voter and Hyman. The bantams were bred from Hemphill, Phelps and Kiser stains. While we don't have the best birds, we certainly hold our own in competition.

Up until about 2000 we were aggressive competitors, though Dave's kidney problems and my Rheumatoid Arthritis have slowed us down considerably. We no longer supply stock as we scaled back operations when our health problems arose. While we don't make as many shows as in the past, our Dominiques can usually be seen at the Missouri State Fair in August.

For 10 years I was secretary of the Dominique Club of America, having taken it on when Roger Voter passed away. During this time the book The American Dominique - A Treatise for the Fancier was completed and published. We are very proud that this text has become a significant reference book for Dominique enthusiasts.

We continue to research and collect information on the Dominique. It is surprising how much material has been discovered in the years since the book was published. It is hoped that someday a second edition can be produced.

You are encouraged to contact the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy or the Dominique Club of America for help in locating stock or answering questions. If you have a question that you'd like addressed to us, simply send us an email, with “Dominique” in the subject line. We receive so much junk email that we discard any without a recognizable subject line.
