Pete is the one, I had one of the babies. He is looking for a home if your interested. $50 he is a year. He is a sweetheart but is to aggressive in breeding with a smaller goose we have.
Sussex County Poultry Fanciers Annual Spring Show - 2013!

Where can I find more information, such as a schedule for this show? At njstatefair.org all I can find out is that the event is on 5/18, but nothing more specific. There seems to be an information session at 10, but is this for visitors, or people who show their chickens, or vendors? Are there any other events during the show that one may want to attend? If this was posted and I missed it, I apologize.

Thewarriorchild,
My goose is doing pretty well in the same coop with the chickens for now. He made friends with one of my white hens and follows her around everywhere. My dad and I decided we are going to see if this arrangement works out so we only have to deal with one coop while I am away at school. The chicken coop is also a lot nice than the older coop the geese were in, so if it seems to work, my dad can restore the shed they were in and use it for tractor storage instead.

NJStateFair has nothing to do with us, except as a venue. I post that site for directions.
There's only a couple of things going on at a scheduled time. The Info Session at 10am is designed for first-time exhibitors and visitors, so they can learn how to get the most out of the show - how the show is set up, what the marks on the coop tags mean, how to meet the breeders whose birds you like, what the judges are looking for, etc. After the show info, we discuss general chicken-related questions, since a show is the best place for that. At around 1:30 is the Ticket Auction. Junior Showmanship goes on most of the day - I can try and find out a specific time if that's what you're after. Judging starts at 9am - there is no scheduled time for an end to that - it's when the judges are finished. Generally, for a one-day show, that's somewhere between 2:30 and 3:30, although it's been as early as 2pm and as last as 4:30pm. The rest of the time is for checking out the show hall and the sale area, and meeting up with breeders and friends. AND buying up all of the goodies at the Bake Sale table! (hint, hint.)

Alright, this sounds good. It helps sell the visit to the long suffering wife, so thanks. This is our first show, so we just visit to get an impression. I'm taking the hint though!
