Hello and

,and the Arkansas thread, from Mabelvale.
 
Does anyone in Arkansas show chickens? I used to be in 4-H, when I was about 12 to 14. But now I am 19. Any tips for where I should start? I want to show Cochins, Japanese, and possibly other breeds.



I show them. The show season is usually fall through early summer.

You can start by deciding which breeds you want to show. Byc has a "breeds" tab on top of the page.
Then you can get some Show quality hatching eggs or live birds along with a copy of the book "APA Standard of Perfection" to select the traits of the birds for show quality.
Grow your and select your birds and wait for the show season to begin, or look around byc for upcoming shows.
You can become NPIP inspected or get your birds T/P tested before you can show them.

You may even can hook up with your local 4h poultry club for help.

Of course this is just a quick suggestion. There is usually alot more to showing birds that what i wrote.
