I don't have a list, but there will be one in Columbus, IN (about 1 hour south of Indy, and 1 hr. north of Louisville, just off I65) April 30th. It was a great show last year. Open and youth classes too.

More info as it gets closer!

I have had chickens ONLY since May 2008. I am NO EXPERT! I raise German Sheps since 1989. I raise chickens with a dog breeder's mentality. I breed for traits. And put them all together and call it a burd.

I am trying to decide if I want to go to the show this weekend in Bloomington. I went to the show in Lebanon last year and thought it was very nice. Has anyone been to the show in Bloomington before? How does it compare to Lebanon's show? Thanks!

I was there a couple years ago and was surprised to see license plates from New Mexico, NC, etc. It is worth attending.
