Giant Blue Cochins at the NW Stockshow

[coloradochick]

GORGEOUS is all I can say. Never realized the difference in SQ and hatchery birds. NOW I do. This pair was huge and soooo pretty. There was also a Black pair and then a Buff Orp trio. WOW! Beautiful Beautiful!

Did you go to the State Fair in Pueblo this last summer, holy wowsers, thye had some pretty birds there. I didn't get to go to the stockshow. Now I really wish I had!!

 

[coloradochick]

No, my gosh I haven't been able to get down there in years, might have to make it a point to go this year

.

I was just in awe staring at these 2 birds. And I also saw my first little white Call duck up close. I think they are the cutest of the cute. They have a bunch of Silkies too. But the Cochins stole my heart.

eta: the exhibits go until next Sunday, not sure how long the birds will be there though.

We got the grounds pass for $12/pc lastnight. I think the weekday is $7/pc.

The stock show has a week to go, but the bird show is over. There might still be birds left upstairs though for sale.

That's what we were looking at lastnight was the birds for sale
