In the cages

Cage traning at home if you don't already do it helps a lot. A tip that I acquired from a very good showman was for 1-2 days before the show reduce the feed for the birds. Right before judging take small pieces of bread and put them in the cage this will perk the birds up and make them move around so that they show better.

I won Grand Champion in the incage show with one of my serama hens
I'm honestly surprised she got that far since she is far from the standard.. not even a recognized color but.. I'll take what i can get
