There is a non apa contest if you want to enter there!

 

[BoundlessLove]

It’s okay.
He’s just pet quality. Not show quality.

He is a color and breed accepted by the ABA and APA, so you should enter him here! Would you like to?

Sure!
This is my first little banty (along with an Oegb duckwing - same age) so I really wasn’t sure if he would qualify just being pet quality.
I’ll try to get a picture of my silver duckwing and post it here, as well.
He is about a week younger.

Great! As long as your bird's breed and variety is accepted by either the APA or ABA, we can judge them by the standard for that breed.
There's no such thing as a genetic registry for chickens - all competitions are based purely on phenotype. If you get lucky, you may even be able to win competitions with a hatchery bred bird.
