Oh wow then that means I can now list mine as show quality birds because we came home with tons of ribbons. But I would also agree with seminolewind just because they win at a show does not mean they will breed show quality birds. I think it is like that in any animal you can have the most beautiful birds or animals but they don't always produce as well as themselves. IT is the birds or animals which can win in the shows but also produce as well as theirselves or better that you want to buy from or breed from. We won first place and best of breed and best of show on our silkies and we did not even breed them a friend gave them to my daughter. But they are beautiful birds. I guess I should add I fell in love with the Grand Champion over all their division Black Jersey Giants so I purchase the pair to breed and see how they produce. My son like wise fell in love with the Winner of the Cochin group and purchased them. Now we have to test them and see how they produce. I think my family is becoming(okay I think we already are) addicted to chickens...we have over 100 birds and building more houses for them. Husband has decided he want to do a chicken type theme park for them....hmmmm Addiction for chickens do you go to CA for that?
