showing Brahmas

She will be fine for the fair. As far as whitening, you can use laundry blueing, or there are several "brightening" horse shampoos on the market. Both work fairly well. Laundry bluing may freak you out a bit, but I used to use it with good success.

 

I think she looks good enough to have a go at it. She won't look exactly the same after her molt (being a pullet) however she has alot of good things going for her already and they could even get better. She has alot of good qualities, in my opinion. Gotta love those pretty Brahma hens!

To whiten her up a little just use about three drops of liquid blueing in her bath water. Dont use more then three drops or you will get rid of her yellow tint and turn it blue. I use it on my meat birds for the fair with one of those net coverd sponges to get off the "gunk", it works wonders.

 

They make various dog shampoos, available at pet stores and/or wally world formulated especially for white coated dogs...they make a white dog's fur as white and shiny as it could possibly be...couldn't you use that? (Just asking, I know it works well on white dogs, don't know if it would be safe for chickens).

Beautiful hen btw, can't wait to get mine!
