    Quote: Where is this thread? I am going to be attending the big National show in Indianapolis and I'm hoping to learn a bit more about show quality vs hatchery. My birds are not hatchery...but I feel they are a little on the small size for the breed. I also like a lot more white on my birds...

    Those silver chicks are adorable! I would LOVE to get some eggs...but can't convince my husband that it's ok to spend $20 on 1 egg. Silvers can't be shown an APA shows right? Or are they able to be shown but can't compete past their variety?
