Welcome to BYC! While you may occasionally get a show quality chicken from hatchery stock it is highly unlikely. I would google show quality (breed) to find breeders. You may have to hatch your own if you can only find eggs for sale. If so, be sure and get a good quality incubator for best results and healthy chicks.

Hiya, and welcome to BYC! :frow

You got lots of info already about show quality chicks. Another idea is to find a reputable breeder who sells their eggs and buy an incubator. I personally recommend Brinsea and have three of those. I've got several exhibition breeders I've found via Facebook, but also a couple times found some on eBay.

As far as showing, you can search here, as there are dozens of threads and articles about showing birds, but here are three that should be helpful to you.
