I got their 2 yrs ago before they opened, didn't know we had the wrong door, no one questioned us, only we did. So we found the table where you pay your admission fee and paid (right thing to do) and asked if we should wait outside or not, they just told us to go ahead and look around. I again plan on getting there early this year what to by eggs, Call Ducks, Silkie, Marans egg have some of them already set up.

Early... I think like 9am Friday and 7am on Saturday.

 

[dadtochickenfan]

I thought the Friday 9am was for cooping in only.

 

[deineria]

And we can buy on Friday?

and Anyone know certain breeders of Wyandottes and Orpingtons that will be at
Ohio Nationals? I would really like to email and prebuy from breeders of quality stock
prior to the show - - -

Just not sure where to start. . .

No, it is not open to the public until Saturday and Sunday. I'm pretty sure the doors open at 7am on Saturday. Sunday I think they do some awarding and is done at 10:30 am.
You could start asking around here if peeped are showing their birds and if they have some for sale they could bring for you.
