The ABA National is going to be in Stockton CA The last weekend in January (3500-4000 birds or so) and he APA has had their National show here several times. The CA State Fair is in an air conditioned building. There are several large shows in Calif .....from the south to the north. PM me if...

That is a great show! Walt

If you belong to the APA they send out every year a Year Book. That has all the stats etc. You want to look for people that have all their points on JG's., if that is what you want to find. The exception to that would be the Grand master Exhibitors as they may have more than 100 points in more...

Congrats Wynette! those are some very good looking birds! Walt

Quote: The body/type. Walt

Quote: As Wynette noted....wash them, but only if they need it. They should be washed about 4-5 days before the show, so that the feathers preen out right and the bird is totally dry. You will need to wash the feet and legs in any event, so do that a few days ahead and keep the birds in those...

Quote: Thank you for the clarification, Walt. That is what I thought. I have another question for you. About the "Splash," variety.... I can't remember where I read or heard this, but is it true that the splash variety is not accepted in any breed? Something about it being so variable that...

Quote: I have seen the yellow go up the leg. (ALL the Sandhills birds I had were culled for this last year). I cull for this, as the standard calls for the yellow to be only on the underpart of the feet. I asked a judge about this. Now I forgot what he said. Kathy, it's a good question -...
