Bearded Silkie Bantam - contest Ends September 5th

[LadiesAndJane]

This is a real Silkie Bantam-only poultry show! No mixes or non-bearded Silkies are allowed. I would love to judge this, based on my own knowledge of the Silkie Bantam breed, but if there is anyone that is very experienced then you may certainly judge! If I do end up judging, and there are enough entries I will first judge by the categories, then of the whole group together. If there are only a few entries I will just judge all the colors in one. I will try my best to judge off the Standard of Perfection for the Bearded Silkies, but it may be hard since I may only have one picture. Judging will start Sep. 5th

When posting your Silkie, use this format:

Category (meaning hen, pullet, rooster, or cockerel)
Month and year hatched
coloration (White, Black, Buff, Blue, Splash, partridge are allowed)
Number of toes on the left foot- Number of toes on the right foot

here is an example of using this format to submit your Silkie:

Suggestion! Lots of folks here on BYC have mixed color silkies (non standard). Can you have a category for these birds? I know of many who have gorgeous birds, that otherwise appear to meet the SOP.
I posted a link to your contest on the spectacular silkies thread.

Yes, I can also have a separate judging category for the mixed colors. It won't let me edit the original post, however, so we will just know you can enter them.
