This year we are pleased to announce that we will two main divisions. One for
APA or ABA-recognized chickens, and one for non-recognized chickens (Easter Eggers, mixed breed, etc.)

If entries warrant, we will have several categories:

APA or ABA recognized
  • Overall
  • Bantam Hen
  • BantamRooster
  • Large Fowl Hen
  • Large Fowl Rooster
These entries will be judged according to the basic principles of the Standard; e.g. quality of feather, clarity of colour, balance of shape, correctness of comb, and how well they represent their breed.

Non-recognized
  • Overall
  • Bantam Hen
  • BantamRooster
  • Large Fowl Hen
  • Large Fowl Rooster
Since there are no Standards of Perfection for poultry not recognized by APA or ABA, this category will be judged based on the overall condition of the birds and the quality of the photos. Clear, focused, well-lit photos of a well-posed bird in good condition will score higher.

Clear, focused images with the bird in a good pose is best—we recommend at least one clear side profile, along with some closeups, such as the bird held with its wings spread or an image from the front to show leg stance. We ask that you limit the number of pictures per entry to five to make things easier on our judges.

The Standard-Bred Chicken Show is a judged photo contest.
