Hello! It's at the Kankakee county fairgrounds. It's called the Tri K piegon bantam club. There are several but the first one is Sunday April 3rd. They have every animal/critter you could possibly imagine and lots of chickens.
Hey Mothergoose, Where abouts in Chebanse are ya? I live in Danforth and grew up in K3! I looked at your website. We've been wanting to get a goat for a while now, so maybe when we come to the show we can pick your brain on the care of them! And if you have any goat babies for sale....lol...

I think thats right. Good luck with your new flock!
Hey Mothergoose.....or anyone selling at the show,
I was wondering if it would be possible for someone to sell my Leghorn Rooster for me, if I can bring him to the show. He is perfectly healthy and actually a beauty but he is the meanest most aggressive Roo ever! I posted in another thread...
I patched an egg with candlewax after cracking it with the flashlight and the chick was fine. Actually it was the second one out! I'm just glad that I read so much on backyard chickens that I actually knew what to do when it happened!
Seminolewind, The only problem is, is that when you stalk him he never backs down. He continues to jump on me over and over and has bruised me before. Then the next day he will catch you totally off guard and come after you the minute you turn your back. And I cant help but be scared! He...
Uh oh Melanie....I think I'm number nine on the list....LOL Zazouse...he is a beauty! I cant believe he's that big at 10 months! I heard how nice they are, I'm hoping I will get lucky and get a gentle roo, I currently have the devil incarnate in my Leghorn roo. I only took him bc my daughters...
Hahaha Yeah I called my daughter off preschool when we heard a chirp on day 20....LOL It was soooo worth it when she'd run into my room screaming "Another one's coming out!" and seeing the excitement in her eyes!
Maybe you go explain to them they are kinda famous and people are waiting on their eggs!....lol It's okay! I get way too excited about all chicken related things. My last hatch my husband would come into the room where the incubator was and see me sitting there staring at it and ask "What do...
Haha Well you did notice I said I went twice....it was kind of my intention to try to see if he was there again, although not much I could've done at that point anyway. Yes, I did learn a good lesson about quaranitine! It's a shame because It is pretty neat. They have every possible animal...
TRI K BANTAM SWAMP.....I am actually from Kankakee. I went to two shows last year. It was very exciting, seeing all those animals and such but....I was very inexperienced. I just wanted some nice laying hens to add to my smaller flock. After walking around for a long time and talking to...
