Ok Grace, next year we are showing there! A woman told me there was only one non-bearded Silkie and it wasn't black like mine. And she said mine probably had a better crest (she was showing like 20 silkies, very critical.) I'm taking all my birds, whether they're pretty or not *haha* Don't you think they should break each breed into male and female, also? The body shapes and sometimes colors are completely different!
It was really cool getting to run into everyone! I think all of us women should've just agreed to meet at the restroom
When did everyone else leave? We were there until 3:30; my parents are finally interested in chickens.
I wanted to buy some yesterday, but Grace bought them all... Just kidding. What did you buy, Grace? I could've swore you told me blue OEs. My mom said "Ok, all you can have are Mille Fleur and Porcelain d'Uccles, and banty Spangled Hamburgs. You can have whatever Grace has." HA!
Monty, were you talking about the Campine trio? My dad and I thought about bidding on those, too *ha* I had an extra box I could've loaned/sold you! But I don't think it would've held any of the big birds you were looking at. What all do you have now? I never got to ask.
Kathleen, how'd your Orps do? Since we got home after dark, mine spent the night in the house *ha* And then I spent today looking at them and drinking hot cocoa. NOT! I had to get a roof on their pen in the sleet...
EGH, you wouldn't happen to know a man named Danny Glass, would you? He shows moderns.
Oh and Grace, Kathleen introduced me to Marlys (I think?) from the duck rescue. She's very nice, I'm excited about the duck and goose release. She said I need Call Ducks *ha*
I think I've taken up the whole 9th page of this thread now.
I had a slight change of plans, though, so I am now wearing a short sleeved blue denim shirt that has a chicken embroidered on it, and I have a dark red undershirt... I do have my yellow name tag, though !!
