Numbers of birds shown still weren't as high as I would've liked to see, BUT were UP for our area!!  YAY!!!  And yes, the pair of LF chicks that were auctioned off were high bid, at for $160 for the pair. They were from Riddle / Patterson breeding.  

 

There were 8 LF Salmons shown in the open show - 1 cockerel, 5 hens, 2 pullets  Tamsen Polley took Champion Faverolles, and Reserve Continental with her salmon hen, and I took Reserve Faverolles of open show with a salmon pullet.

 

There were 5 bantams shown in the open show - 2 blue hens, 1 blue salmon cock, 2 salmon cocks. BB went to Karen Carpenter's salmon cock, and RB went to O'Neal Chicks salmon cock.

 

In the youth show, there were 2 LF salmon hens shown - BB and Reserve Continental to Jonah Hart, RB to Zack Markell 

There were 7 bantams shown in the youth show - 4 blacks, and 3 salmons - BB and Champion Faverolles Junior to Jonah Hart, RB and Reserve Faverolles Junior to Mackenzie Graham.

 

Congratulations to all the exhibitors!!!

 

Thank you so much to everyone who made a donation - the host club, the Pacific Northwest Poultry Association, donated $100 in cash awards, Laurel Zepp, Karen & Tamsen Polley donated silent auction items, Elizabeth Martin donated special youth awards, and Andrew Hamilton made a cash donation toward awards.

 

I will post pics after I go to the store and get them onto a CD off of my camera! ;)

Thank you for all your hard work, Jeanine...and congratulations on your win!  I wish I could have gone.  I hope my market tote brought in some money for the club.

Pretty sure #1 is a pullet,  possibly #4 also.  I'm not going to commit on the others - difficult to tell.  Could you post a side view of them just standing without wings spread out?  Are any of them sprouting any tail feathers yet?

 

What do you look for in the wing feathers to tell?
