Were there any Dorkings at the Ohio Nationals this year? I didn't attend this time so I doubt there were...Just curious did anybody go?

Is anybody going to the Southern Ohio Poultry Association Spring Show this May in Lucasville? I will be there with a few red Dorkings for sale.

I would choose #1...If it were me...I mean, the Dorking shape is really important. And I think that behavior with chickens is most of the time just what the chicken itself is like. I have a Dorking cockerel who was never aggressive at all, then came back from a show and jumps at me whenever I go...

We give them leftover soured goat milk, and it is actually really good for them. People have been doing this for years. I actually put a pot of rather normal milk out for them and they waited till it was curdled, *then* knocked it over and ate it up. They love it!

Wow I didn't know this thread was still going! What shall we do first as the BYC Dorking club? Here's something I have to say: Please show your Dorkings!! Whatever shows you go to, please take your Dorkings along. If you don't go to shows, there is a first for everything and they are a blast...

Oh, really? The Dorking is a dual purpose breed; eggs and meat, so if there are any culls or non-show quality males, schwwwwwik! A pic of a Red Dorking male and a Red Dorking female:
