Two of my blue orp bantam pullets have been entered and my buff orp cockerel is making his first appearance this year. Luckily a friend is taking them for me.
Anyone on the poultry forum going?
 
I'm going,haven't entered any poultry,but I'll be in the old broiler class :lol: .
 
I'm going - not to enter anything - but I want some more chucks next spring and have a shortlist of breeds - must be a friendly and hopefully handleable breed. So excited - been looking at silkies in ernest but a bit nervous to say the least because of their susceptability to mareks. :shock: Keep changing my mind as to wether to go for vaccinated or not or wether I should leave well alone incase I put my originals at risk. :? Advice please?

In any case - I am so looking forward to going. Really into this poultry thing now - strange really - had them for 14 years but have become addicted to it - the forums fault :lol:
 
Hi Simon,

Not going to the National but will be at the Fed. See you there :D

Thanks mate

Alas it's just before pay day and I need to get the brakes done on my land rover and get my car taxed and mot'd. I won't be going far until Christmas by the looks of things!

Osric :(

that is a shame Osric,still,there is the other big show,the Federation,that will be after you've been paid and you could make it your Xmas pressie to yourself.
big tip for everyone now,buy/get yourself what you want for Xmas-only way to guarantee you get what you actually want :lol: .
 
Hmm I've got my presents already! Ducks from Germany and Windows 7 for my PC for Christmas day.... :lol:

I dare say I might be dressing up as Santa again for the children and drinking a little sherry... ;)

Are there any shows in the North of England? I mean the proper North of England, some people think Birmingham is north but that's waaaay down south from me. Almost a different country!

Or the Poultry Shows Calander on poultrykeeper ;) There are a couple of Northern shows listed there.
 
Welsh National Weekend is 12 and 11th January 2009 - http://dyfedpoultrysociety.org.uk/history.html

Do many people on here show their birds? I'm thinking about putting a couple of birds in the show above as its only about 10 miles from me- just to see what goes on really! - Is showing for the first time really scary? And most importantly, will the old hands think I'm nuts to even try :lol:

I don't think they have updated their pages in a while...

Just realised this post is in the General Chickens forum - I will move it to the Shows / Showing forum... ;)
