    Poultry Show Cages

    We are buying new pens and need to find a home for the old. Our fair has replaced the sheep, pig and goat pens (all with donations) and it's our turn.

    actually a very handsome Old man, he's 5 and very spoiled, but is the Rooster I take to all my demos, he's a show bird too. This is one of his professional Photos, I dared a photographer to take the pictures. She took the dare and did great, she's now taking chicken pictures.
