Thank you, he was a very special and spoiled boy. He earned his name at about 6 weeks old when he would totally relax and stretch out. We joked he was showing off his drumsticks to flaunt us. My daughter at the time was also in the band playing drums so the name stuck.
Love the name!! He is spectacular!
He is gorgeous!!Entry 2

Drumstick was coming in to his prime when he was taken by a Coyote. It is hard sometimes to look at Bubba and wonder what his daddy would look like now.

Official BYC 2024 Summer Fair
Standard-Bred Chicken Show
Ends on August 25th, 2024
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
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.
- Overall
- Bantam Hen
- BantamRooster
- Large Fowl Hen
- Large Fowl Rooster
Non-recognized
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.
- Overall
- Bantam Hen
- BantamRooster
- Large Fowl Hen
- Large Fowl Rooster
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.
Overall APA or ABA Recognized Prizes - TBD
