Ok....I have my quarantine pens set up for after the show and am working on a vehicle to transport, also starting to dread the idea of bathing LF in the winter....brrrrr! My son's Black Copper Marans cockerel got frost bite on his comb last week and so we won't be bringing him. Boo.

I'm going. Showing black and blue Jersey Giants, and a pair of BB Red Phoenix. Also selling a number of Phoenix pullets and cockerels.

I am looking to buy a phoenix cockerel! I hope that I will be able to attend!

The forecast looks good for this weekend (I was fearing snow) so I will be driving over for the day on Saturday. Just going to see the show, but will bring along few cages "just in case" I see anything irresistible for sale.

Does anyone have good recommendations for lunch spots in the area?

I've been to the show ground several times of the years-- but once arriving never left to get around town. Everything far too interesting to leave. lol So I'm no help!

I'm showing bantam cochins - red, columbian, black mottled, partridge and black frizzle.

Hoping to find some bantam cochins for sale to bring home

OK, 5 birds bathed, 1 to go…. WHY oh WHY do I wait to the last minute for these things??? Procrastination. Had to bribe my son with pizza and a movie to help me….actually sounds good to me, REALLY don't feel like cooking dinner now. So sad that we have to leave home my son's cockerel because of his frost bite. One of the other birds managed to poo on his comb yesterday so I had to catch him up, clean off his comb and then I slathered him with balmex. I just LOVE this guy, I think he looks quite fetching even with his white comb….

Can someone help me with basic ediquette at these shows. WHen I am by myself, I just observe and stay out of the way. Feel like there is more I should know . . . .
