Hey all!
I am judging my first 4H show this year (poultry/rabbit). It will include production birds, fancy breeds, and showmanship on the poultry side. I’ve judged poultry before in school, but not had to place with ribbons. If anyone else judges 4H poultry, how do you handle the Danish ribbon system? Are there certain scores you use to denote ribbon placement?
 
In my county, each bird is judged against the APA standard and awarded blue, red, or white based on how well they measure up to the book. They are not judged against each other, just themselves.
Then they will be judged against all other birds in groups of LF or B cock, hen, pullet, and cockerel, but only the top three will get a second ribbon. Last is the Champion and Reserve LF and B.
I don't know anything about rabbits, but I hope this helps with chickens.
