Your welcome Beth! i hope you can come to the other shows! I might even enter something just for the heck of it to get my feet wet! hahaha
I need to find some literature about entering, like how old the birds should be and how to figure out what class they get entered into!​

Hey, I ran into Celtic Hill yesterday... He is just a young dude right? I was on the phone with my husband at the time when he first approached me. My border collie ate one of my EE back at home. My husband was telling me the grim details... Wow, I sure wish I could go to Shay's at the end of the month... Darn kids, you give birth to them and now they expect the occasional get together...

That was SO much fun. Huge thanks to Four Winds Farm and the Boston Poultry Expo for putting on such a great event!

CelticHill - great to meet you and hang out a bit!

Beth G. - Bluebell is doing great so far, and I'll definitely post updates.

ETA: Thank you to Tamara for taking pics of my Little Blue! It was great to meet you, and fun to try to get Blue to pose for your camera.

I don't think you're on here, but thanks to Julie and Bob for providing such a great home for Celeste and Henry (I miss him so much already! Maybe a little bit of seller's remorse going on here.), Larry for taking Hansel and the ducks for your friend's farm, Jay of Birden Castle Poultry for taking Little Blue for one of his 4H-ers (I can't wait to see the results of that pairing you mentioned, as well as see him as he grows up!), and I forget the name of the gal who bought little Clyde to go with her MF hen, but thanks!

Awesome to see everyone else, and congrats to everyone in the show!

My results:
Splash silkie hen "Wembley" - 1st in class (no other hens), Best of Variety (out of 3)
Partridge silkie pullet "Tribble" - 1st in class (out of 3 pullets), Reserve Variety (out of 6-7)
Self-blue d'Uccle cockerel "Little Blue" - 1st in class (no other self-blue d'Uccles), with a demerit for color in the notes because his hackles are sun-bleached ivory instead of the blue they should be - noted.

Black East Indies drake "Apollo" - 3rd in class (out of 4-5?)
BEI hen "Calliope" - 4th in class (out of 4-5?)

Congrats on your wins. I want to try this showing thing....I am hoping to maybe get to the bantam show. I saw you but you were so concentrated on what you were doing each time, I did not want to break your train of thought! You were so focused on getting your birds in the show! LOL
